for a' his gold and white monie,

and auld men shall never daunton me.

to daunton me, &c.

his gear may buy him kye and yowes,

his gear may buy him glens and knowes;

but me he shall not buy nor fee,

for an auld man shall never daunton me.

to daunton me, &c.

he hirples twa fauld as he dow,

wi' his teethless gab and his auld beld pow,

and the rain rains down frae his red blear'd e'e;

that auld man shall never daunton me.

to daunton me, &c.
