30 January 08 - 09:39The deil's awa wi' th' Exciseman
The Deil’s awa, the Deil’s awa,The deil’s awa wi’ th’ Exciseman!
He’s danc’d awa, he’s danc’d awa,
He’s danc’d awa wi’ th’ Exciseman!
The Deil cam fiddling thro’ the town,
And danc’d awa wi’ th’ Exciseman!
And ilka wife cries Auld Mahoun
I wish ye luck o’ the prize man!
We’ll mak our maut, and we’ll brew our
Drink
We’ll laugh, sing, and rejoice, man,
And monie braw thanks to the meikle
Black Deil
That danc’d awa wi’ the Exciseman!
There’s threesome reel’s there’s
Foursome reels
There’s hornpipes and strathspeys man’
But the ae best dance ere cam to the land
Was the deil’s awa wi’ th’ Exciseman!
