There were Eagles bright, and Eagles brown,
And some as black's a Craw;
But it‘s now well kent they've a' gen up
To Cocky-leary-law.

Cocky-leary-law,
Cocky-leary-law:
But it's now well kent they've a' gen up
To Cocky-leary-law.

In the morning about three o'clock,
He cheers them with his craw,
Invites all hands, baith high and low,
To do their duties a'.

Cocky-leary-law,
Cocky-leary-law:
Invites all hands, baith high and low,
To do their duties a':
Cocky-leary-law.

With sword in hand he will contend
With foes baith great and sma';
Nor e'er give up, but with last breath
Sings Cocky-leary-law:

Cocky-leary-law,
Cocky-leary-law:
Nor e'er give up, but with last breath
Sings Cocky-leary-law.
