Come well, come woe, I care nae by.
I'll tak what Heav'n will sen'me, O;
Nae ither care in life have I,
But live, and love my Nannie, O.


Kenmure's on and awa.

Oh Kenmure's on and awa, Willie!
Oh Kenmure's on and awa!
And Kenmure's lord's the bravest lord,
That ever Galloway saw.

Success to Kenmure's hand, Willie!
Success to Kenmure's hand;
There's no a heart that fears a Whig,
That rides by Kenmure's hand.

Here's Kemure's health in wine, Willie!
Here's Kenmure's health in wine;
There ne'er was a coward o' Kenmure's blude,
Nor yet o' Gordon's line.

Oh Kenmure's lads are men, Willie!
Oh Kenmure's lads are men,
There hearts and swords are metal true,
And that their foes shall ken.

They'll live or die wi' fame, Willie!
Thee'll live or die wi' fame,
But soon, wi' sounding victorie,
May Kennure's lord come hame.

Here's him that's far awa, Willie!
Here's him that's far awa!
And here's the flower that I love best,
The rose that's like the snaw
