Up Stocks, Doon Stules
Up Stocks, Doon Stules
Up stocks, doon stules,
Dinna think 'at we are fules,
We're but bairns come to play,
Rise up and gie's oor Hogmanay;
God bless the maister o' this hoose,
The mistress also,
And all the little children
That roond the table go;
Your pockets fu' o' money,
Your bottles fu' o' beer,
You'll never miss a ha'penny,
To begin this guid new year!
