Old Blind Dogs

Is There For Honest Poverty

by Old Blind Dogs
Old Blind Dogs

Biography:

Old Blind Dogs is a musical group which plays Celtic folk and traditional Scottish folk music, with influences from rock, reggae and Middle Eastern music rhythms. The three founding members of the band (Ian F. Benzie, Buzzby McMillan and Jonny Hardie) first met during a so-called "buskers' holiday" in the Scottish Highlands in 1990, and after playing together for the summer decided to call themselves "Old Blind Dogs". Dave Francis and Carmen Higgins joined the band soon afterwards

[Intro]
G C G C x2
[Verse]
G C D
Is there for honest poverty
G C
That hings his head an' a' that?
G C D
The coward slave, we pass him by
G D
We dare be pair for a' that
G C D
For a' that, an' a' that
G C
Our toils obscure an' a' that
G C
The rank is but the guinea's stamp
G C D
The man's the gowd for a' that

[Verse]
G C D
But though on hamely fare we dine
G C
Wear hoddin gray an' a' that?
G C D
Gie fools their silks and knaves their wine
G D
A man's a man for a' that
G C D
For a' that, an' a' that
G C
Their tinsel show an' a' that
G C
The honest man though e'er sae poor
G C D G C G C
Is king o' men for a' that

[Verse]
G C D
Ye see yon birkie ca'd a lord
G C
Wha struts an' stares an' a' that?
G C D
Though hundreds worship at his word
G D
He's but a cuif for a' that
G C D
For a' that, an' a' that
G C
His ribband, star, an' a' that
G C
The man o' independent mind
G C D
He looks an' laughs at a' that

[Verse]
G C D
A prince can mak a belted knight
G C
A marquis, duke, an' a' that
G C D
But an honest man's aboon his might
G D
Guid faith, he mauna fa' that
G C D
For a' that, an' a' that
G C
Their dignities an' a' that
G C
The pith o' sense an' pride o' worth
G C D
Are higher rank than a' that

[Instrumental]
G C G C x2

[Verse]
A D E
Then let us pray, that come it may
A D
As come it will for a' that
A D E
That sense and worth o'er a' the earth
A E
Shall bear the gree an' a' that
A D E
For a' that, an' a' that
A D
It's comin' yet for a' that
A D
That man to man the world o'er
A D E
Shall brithers be for a' that
