Chorus:
Ye Jacobites by name,
lend an ear, lend an ear!
Ye Jacobites by name, lend an ear,
Ye Jacobites by name,
Your fautes I will proclaim,
Your doctrines I maun blame -
You will hear, you will hear!
Your doctrines I maun blame, you will hear!
What is right, and what is wrong,
by the law, by the law?
What is right, and what is wrong, by the law?
What is right, and what is wrong?
A weak arm and a strang,
A short sword and a lang,
For to draw, for to draw;
A short sword and a lang, for to draw!

What
makes heroic strife
famed afar, famed afar
What makes heroic strife famed afar?
What makes heroic strife,
to whet the assassin's knife
And haunt a parent's life
wi bloody war, bloody war
And haunt a parent's life wi bloody war?
Chorus
So let yer schemes alone
in the State, in the State
Let yer schemes alone in the State
Let yer schemes alone,
adore the Rising Sun
And leave a man undone
to his fate, to his fate
And leave a man undone to his fate
