[Verse 1]
It is old but it is beautiful, and its colours they are fine
It was worn at Derry, Aughrim, Enniskillen and the Boyne
My father wore it as a youth in bygone days of yore
And on the Twelfth, I love to wear the sash my father wore
[Spoken Intro]
And when the Scottish Nationalist stole this from Ireland, it became a song about Queen Elizabeth. You see they never had a first Elizabeth in Scotland. So their point was how can you have a second Elizabeth if the first one's never been
[Chorus]
Nae Liz the Twa, nae Lilibet the One
Nae Liz will ever be
We'll make our land Republican
In the Scottish breakaway
[Verse 2]
Oh now Scotland has nae got a King
And she has nae got a Queen
How can ye have the Second Liz
When the First one's never been
[Chorus]
Nae Liz the Twa, nae Lilibet the One
Nae Liz will ever be
We'll make our land Republican
In the Scottish breakaway
It is old but it is beautiful, and its colours they are fine
It was worn at Derry, Aughrim, Enniskillen and the Boyne
My father wore it as a youth in bygone days of yore
And on the Twelfth, I love to wear the sash my father wore
