A Gay's a Man for A' That Is there for honest policy That hings its head, an a' that? The coward politician, we pass him by - We dare be queer for a' that! For a' that, an a' that! Our ways obscure, an a' that, Marriage is but the guinea's stamp, The gay's the gowd for a' that. What though on ‘homo’ fare we dine, Wear shocking pink, an a' that? Gie fools their thrills, and knaves their wives - A gay's a man for a' that. For a' that, an a' that, Their tinsel show, an a' that, The honest gay, tho’ e'er sae queer, Is queen o’ men for a' that. Then let us pray that come it may (As come it will for a' that), That Liberty and Charity o'er a' the earth, Shall bear the gree an a' that. For a' that, an a' that, It's coming yet for a' that, That gay to gay, the world, o'er Shall brithers be for a' that.
