Parcel o' Rogues - Old Blind Dogs

Farewell tae a' oor Scottish fame

Farewell oor ancient glory

Farewell even tae oor Scottish name

Sae famed in martial story

Noo Sark runs o’er the Solway Sands

And Tweed runs tae the ocean

Tae mark where England’s province stands

Such a parcel of rogues in a nation

What force or guile could ne’er subdue

Through many warlike ages

Is wrought now by a coward few

For hireling traitors wages

The English steel we could disdain

Secure in valour’s station

But English gold has been our bane

Such a parcel of rogues in a nation

Oh would or I had seen the day

That treason thus could fell us My auld grey heid had lain in clay

Wi' Bruce and loyal Wallace

But pith and power, till my last hour

I’ll mak' this declaration

We are bought and sold for English gold

Such a parcel of rogues in a nation
