Ye Jacobites by name, give an ear, give an ear
Ye Jacobites by name, give an ear
Ye Jacobites by name, your faults I will proclaim
Your doctrines I will blame, you shall hear, you shall hear
Your doctrines I will blame, you shall hear
What's right and what is wrong, by the law, by the law
What's right and what is wrong, by the law
What's right and what is wrong a short sword and a long
A weak arm and a strong for to draw, for to draw
A weak arm and a strong for to draw
What makes heroic strife famed afar, famed afar
What makes heroic strife famed afar
What makes heroic strife to whet the assassin's knife
Or hunt a parent's life wi' bloody war, bloody war
Or hunt a parent's life wi' bloody war
Then leave your schemes alone, in the state, in the state
Then leave your schemes alone, in the state
Then leave your schemes alone, adore the rising sun
And leave a man alone to his fate, to his fate
And leave a man alone to his fate
Ye Jacobites by name, give an ear, give an ear
Ye Jacobites by name, give an ear
Ye Jacobites by name, your faults I will proclaim
Your doctrines I will blame, you shall hear, you shall hear
Your doctrines I will blame, you shall hear
