For Murray's light horse are to muster	B
And O how the heroes will swear	C
And there will be Murray Commander	B
And Gordon the battle to win	D
Like brothers they'll stand by each other	B
Sae knit in alliance and kin	D

The tongue o' the trump to them a'	F
An he get na Hell for his haddin'	E

A boy no sae black at the bane	E
But as to his fine Nabob fortune	E
We'll e'en let the subject alane	E

And there will be Wigton's new Sheriff	I
Dame Justice fu' brawly has sped	J
She's gotten the heart of a Bushby	E
But Lord what's become o' the head	J
And there will be Cardoness Esquire	K
Sae mighty in Cardoness' eyes	L
A wight that will weather damnation	E
The Devil the prey will despise	L
	-

And there will be Douglasses doughty	E
New christening towns far and near	M
Abjuring their democrat doings	N
By kissin' the o' a Peer	M
And there will be folk frae Saint Mary's	O
A house o' great merit and note	P
The deil ane but honours them highly	E
The deil ane will gie them his vote	P

And there will be Kenmure sae gen'rous	O
Whose honour is proof to the storm	Q
To save them from stark reprobation	E
He lent them his name in the Firm	R
And there will be lads o' the gospel	S
Muirhead wha's as gude as he's true	T
And there will be Buittle's Apostle	S
Wha's mair o' the black than the blue	T

And there will be Logan M'Dowall	T
Sculdudd'ry an' he will be there	C
And also the Wild Scot o' Galloway	U
Sogering gunpowder Blair	C
But we winna mention Redcastle	T
The body e'en let him escape	V
He'd venture the gallows for siller	B
An 'twere na the cost o' the rape	V

But where is the Doggerbank hero	W
That made Hogan Mogan to skulk	H
Poor Keith's gane to hell to be fuel	T
The auld rotten wreck of a Hulk	H
And where is our King's Lord Lieutenant	X
Sae fam'd for his gratefu' return	E
The birkie is gettin' his Questions	O
To say in Saint Stephen's the morn	E
	-

But mark ye there's trusty Kerroughtree	W
Whose honor was ever his law	T
If the Virtues were pack'd in a parcel	T
His worth might be sample for a'	F

The maist o' the lairds wi' him stand	Y
Nae gipsy like nominal barons	O
Wha's property's paper not land	Y

And there frae the Niddisdale borders	O
The Maxwells will gather in droves	O
Teugh Jockie staunch Geordie an' Wellwood	Y

Wha'll ne'er be forgot in the Greys	O
Our flatt'ry we'll keep for some other	W

Tak tent how ye purchase a dram	Z
And there will be gay Cassencarry	W
And there'll be gleg Colonel Tam	Z

And there'll be wealthy young Richard	Y
Dame Fortune should hing by the neck	H
For prodigal thriftless bestowing	H
His merit had won him respect	Y
And there will be rich brother Nabobs	O
Tho' Nabobs yet men not the worst	Y
And there will be Collieston's whiskers	O
And Quintin a lad o' the first	Y
	-
	-
Then hey the chaste Interest o' Broughton	E
And hey for the blessin's 'twill bring	H
It may send Balmaghie to the Commons	O
In Sodom 'twould make him a king	H
And hey for the sanctified Murray	W
Our land wha wi' chapels has stor'd	Y
He founder'd his horse among harlots	O
But gied the auld naig to the Lord	Y
