Glass and the Can Songtext
von Wolfstone

Here′s to yir ain kith and kin
Here's tae your sisters and brothers
Those wi′ the bonnie blue e'en
And the hundreds of thousands of others
Of them that are happy and glad
And those who would never say never
Rarely downcast and sad
May you prosper forever and ever

Here's tae the lads o′ the fair
And their lassies that rove in the morning
Here′s tae the gullible pair
Ne'er listening nor heeding the warning
Here′s tae the lads in the band
Here's tae the Castleyards Cooper
And tae the bonnie new bairn
May the wind and the rain never stop her


Here′s tae the glass and the can
Here's tae the lassies that matter
Here′s tae the rascal that ran
And the stuff that ye tak' wi' your water
Here′s tae the fool on the hill
And his pals that are down in the valley
that drink down a half wi′ their gill
Never thinking nor checking the tally

Here's tae the boys on the park
And them that head down to the paddock
Here′s tae the song o' the lark
And the lads that are netting the haddock
May their days be long and fulfilled
May their hours be happy and cheery
And may all of your wishes come true
And your hearty self never be weary

Here′s to yir ain kith and kin
Here's tae your sisters and brothers
Those wi′ the bonnie blue e'en
And the hundreds of thousands of others
Of them that are happy and glad
And those who would never say never
Or rarely downcast and sad
May you prosper forever and ever
