[verse]
C#m                        C#m
Donald's gane up the hill hard and hungry,
C#m                         B
Donald comes down the hill wild and angry;
C#m                    C#m
Donald will clear the gouk's nest cleverly,
A              B         C#m        B
Here's to king James and Donald MacGillavry!


C#m                     C#m
Come like a weighbauk, Donald MacGillavry,
C#m                     B
Come like a weighbauk, Donald MacGillavry,
C#m                     C#m
Balance them fair, and balance them cleverly:
A          B            C#m        B
Off wi'the counterfeit, Donald MacGillavry!


C#m                         C#m
Donald's run o'er the hill but his tether, man,
C#m                 B
As he were wud, or stang'd wi' an ether, man;
C#m                          C#m
When he comes back, there's some will look merrily:
A              B         C#m        B
Here's to King James and Donald MacGillavry!


C#m                  C#m
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,
C#m                  B
Come like a weaver, Donald MacGillavry,
C#m                     C#m
Pack on your back, and elwand sae cleverly;
A             B           C#m        B
Gie them full measure, my Donald MacGillavry.


C#m                      C#m
Donald has foughten wi' rief and roguery;
C#m                     B
Donald has dinner'd wi banes and beggary,
C#m                 C#m
Better it were for Whigs and Whiggery
A           B          C#m        B
Meeting the devil than Donald MacGillavry.


C#m                  C#m
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
C#m                  B
Come like a tailor, Donald MacGillavry,
C#m                      C#m
Push about, in and out, thimble them cleverly,
A              B         C#m        B
Here's to King James and Donald MacGillavry.

C#m                       C#m
Donald's the callan that brooks nae tangleness;
C#m                        B
Whigging and prigging and a'newfangleness,
C#m                    C#m
They maun be gane: he winna be baukit, man:
A           B           C#m          B
He maun hae justice, or faith he'll tak it, man.

Come like a cobbler, Donald MacGillavry,
C#m                   B
Come like a cobbler, Donald MacGillavry;
C#m                            C#m
Beat them, and bore them, and lingel them cleverly,
A           B         C#m        B
Up wi' King James and Donald MacGillavry.


C#m                   C#m
Donald was mumpit wi mirds and mockery;
C#m                     B
Donald was blinded wi' blads o' property;
C#m                  C#m
Arles ran high, but makings were naething, man,
A         B         C#m          B
Lord, how Donald is flyting and fretting, man.


(C#m) N.C.
Come like the devil, Donald MacGillavry,

Come like the devil, Donald MacGillavry;

Skelp them and scaud them that proved sae unbritherly,
                               C#m
Up wi King James and Donald MacGillavry!
