And Sae Will We Yet

Sit ye down here my cronies and gie me your crack,
Let the win' tak the care o' this life on its back,
Our hearts to despondency we ne'er will submit,
For we've aye been provided for and sae will we yet,
And sae will we yet and sae will we yet,
For we've aye been provided for and sae will we yet.

Let the miser delight in the hoarding of peelf,
Since he has not the soul to enjoy it himself;
Since the bounty of Providence is new every day,
As we journey through life, let us live by the way,
Let us live by the way and sae will we yet,
For we've aye been provided for and sae will we yet.

Then bring us a tankard of nappy good ale,
For to comfort our hearts and enliven the tale,
We'll aye be provided for the longer we sit,
For we've drank togither mony a time, and sae will we yet,
And saae will we yet and sae will we yet,
For we've aye been provided for and sae will we yet.

Success to the farmer, and prosper his plow,
Rewarding his eident toils a' the year through;
Our seed time and harvest we ever will get,
For we've listen'd aye to providence, and sae will we yet,
And sae will we yet and sae will we yet,
For we've aye been provided for and sae will we yet.

Long live the King, and happy may he be,
And success to his forces by land and by sea,
His enemies to triumph we en'er will submit,
Britains aye hae been victorious and sae will they yet,
And sae will they yet and sae will they yet,
For they've been provided for and sae will they yet.

Let the glass keep its course, and go merrily roun',
For the sun has to rise, though the moon has gane down,
Till the house be rinnin' round about, 'tis time enough to flit,
When we fell we aye get up again and sae will we yet,
And sae will we yet and sae will we yet,
For we've aye been provided for and sae will we yet.
