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, the weak arm and the strong,
the short sword and the long for tae draw for tae draw,
the short sword and the long for tae draw.

So let your schemes alone in the state in the state,
so let your schemes alone in the state.
so let your schemes alone, adore the rising sun,
and leave a man alone tae his fate tae his fate,
and leave a man alone tae his fate.
Ye sassanachs by name lend an ear lend an ear,
