An' whiles twalpennie worth o' nappy
Can mak the bodies unco happy:
They lay aside their private cares,
To mind the Kirk and State affairs;
They'll talk o' patronage an' priests,
Wi' fury i' their breasts,
Or tell what new taxation's comin,
An' ferlie at the folk in Lon'on.
Can mak the bodies unco happy:

Or tell what new taxation's comin,
