Version 1
            Just a wee deoch-an-doris

[Verse]
           G
There's a good old Scottish custom, that has stood the test of time,
       C                  G                   D
it's a custom that’s been carried out in ev'ry land and clime.
           G
Where brother Scots fore-gather, it's aye the usual thing,
       D                         A            D   D7
just before they say guid-nicht, we fill our cups and sing.

[Chorus]
      G
Just a wee deoch-an-doris, just a wee yin that's a',
     C            G                D
just a wee deoch-an-doris before we gang a-wa'.
      G                         C
There's a wee wifie waitin', in a wee but an ben,
     G                  C             G              A    D    G
if you can say, "It's a braw bricht moonlicht nicht", ye a'richt ye ken


[Verse]
        G
I like a man who is a man, a man who's straight and fair,
        C                  G                     D
the sort of man who will and can, in all things do his share.
        G
I like a man, a jolly man, the sort o' man you know, ye ken.
        D                              A          D     D7
the chap who slaps your back and says "Here Jock, before you go.”

[Chorus]
      G
Just a wee deoch-an-doris, just a wee yin that's a',
      C             G                D
just a wee deoch-an-doris before we gang a-wa'.
      G                            C
There's a wee wifie waitin', in a wee but an ben,
      G                   C                G          A     D   G
if you can say, "It's a braw bricht moonlicht nicht", ye a'richt ye ken
