[Verse]
C
Our thrissles are a' flourish'd
F
And bonnie bloom'd our roses
C
But Whigs cam like a frost in June
F
An' wither'd a' our posies
[Chorus]
C
Awa', Whigs, awa'
F
Awa', Whigs, awa'
C
Ye're jist a pack o' traitor louns
F
Ye'll dae nae guid at a'
[Verse]
C
Our sad decay in church and state
F
Surpasses my descriving
C
The Whigs cam o'er us like a curse
F
And we hae done wi' thriving
[Chorus]
C
Awa', Whigs, awa'
F
Awa', Whigs, awa'
C
Ye're jist a pack o' traitor louns
F
Ye'll dae nae guid at a'
[Chorus]
C
Awa', Whigs, awa'
F
Awa', Whigs, awa'
C
Ye're jist a pack o' traitor louns
F
Ye'll dae nae guid at a'
[Verse]
C
Doon the law the Whigs'll fa'
F
A' sae tapsalteerie
C
And the craw, the raven and the rocks'll fla'
F
Frae the wids around my dearie
[Verse]
C
Doon the law the Whigs'll fa'
F
A' sae tapsalteerie
C
And the craw, the raven and the rocks'll fla'

Frae the wids around my dearie
[Verse]
C
Our ancient crown's fa'n in the dust
F
Deil blin' them wi' the stoure o't
C
An' write their names in his black beuk
F
Wha gae the Whigs the power o't
[Chorus]
C
Awa', Whigs, awa'
F
Awa', Whigs, awa'
C
Ye're jist a pack o' traitor louns
F
Ye'll dae nae guid at a'
[Verse]
C
Grim vengeance lang has taen a nap
F
Yet we may see him wauken
C
Gude help the day when royal heads
F
Are hunted like a maukin
[Chorus]
C
Awa', Whigs, awa'
F
Awa', Whigs, awa'

Ye're jist a pack o' traitor louns
