Black Scots and red Scots,
Red Scots and black;
I hae dealt wi the red Scot,
An dealt wi the black.
The Red Scot is angry
Among the sons o men
Hell pay you a bawbee,
An steal it back again.
Black Scots and red Scots,
Red Scots and black;
I hae dealt wi the red Scot,
An dealt wi the black.
The Black Scot is frienly
A brither an a
Hell pay you a bawbee,
An steal back twa.
The Ginger Scot o a Scots,
The warst shade o Scot,
For hell pay ye naething,
An tak a youve got.
Black Scots and red Scots,
Short Scots an lang,
Ginger Scots an bald Scots
I dealt wi the gang.
