When ye are auld an' pitten past, / Ye'll whiles be sittin' wi' a freen' / And crackin', as ye hear the blast / Rage i' the lum, o' fowk ye've seen.
There's some gangs whingein',[18] singin' sma', / An' some that taks a baulder tune, / But ae thing's aye the same wi' a' -- / Their mou's owre muckle for their spune.
