The day we were wed, the grass was sae green, The sun was as bright as the light in her 'een, Now we've twa bonny lassies who sit on her knee While she sings the song that she once sang to me:

Chorus: A Gordon for me, a Gordon for me, If you're no' a Gordon, you're nae use to me, The Black Watch are braw, the Seaforths an' a', But the cocky wee Gordon's the pride o' them a'.
