Lyrics:

So come, a' ye Kincardine lads
Come along wi' me
We'll ging doon tae Sandy's still
And tak the barley bree

Chorus (after each verse):
Wi' a hi dum a doo dum a daddy o
Hi dum a doo dum a daddy o
Hi dum a doo dum a daddy o
Hi dum a doo dum a daddy o

Sandy rade his auld gray mare
He rode the break o' day
Sayin', "Laddie, laddie, gyan yersel'
The gaugers are on their way"

The gaugers, they cam tae the hoose
They ran richt up the stair
Searched the room, a' richt aroon
But they fund nae bottles there

They pu'd the blankets aff the bed
Threw them on the flair
Maggie, she cam runnin' ben
Sayin', "Ye beggars, get oot the door"

Well, Sandy Callum made the still
He made it tae a plan
So it would stand away oot there
And mak the doubles strang

So come, a' ye Kincardine lads
Come along wi' me
We'll ging doon tae Sandy's still
And tak the barley bree
