For the sake of Auld Langsyne.

There’s a coat, my boys, that saw the days

Of poor Queen Caroline,

Of the fit and cloth, that George the Fourth,

In as Regent used to shine.

That is it was a fit, my boys,

But I don’t too often dine,

So it’s rather loose, and worse for use,

Still I don it, for Auld Langsyne.
