Another famous Scots song by Robert Burns

The De'il's Awa Wi' Th' Exciseman


The deil cam fiddlin thro' the town

And danced awa wi' th' Exciseman;

And ilka wife cries, auld Mahoun,

I wish you luck o' the prize, man.



Chorus

The deil's awa, the deil's awa

The deil's awa wi' th' Exciseman,

He's danced awa, he's danced awa

He's danced awa wi' th' Exciseman.



2. We'll mak our maut and we'll brew our drink,

We'll laugh, sing and rejoice, man;

And mony braw thanks to the meikle black deil,

That danc'd awa wi' th' Exciseman.

Chorus



3. There's threesome reels, there's foursome reels,

There's hornpipes and strathpeys, man,

But the ae best dance e'er cam to the Land

Was, the deil's awa wi' th' Exciseman.
