A Mans A Man For All That Lyrics - Singles - Celtic Folk

A Man's A Man For All That 

DGADGA 

Is there for honest poverty one who hangs his head and all that? 

DGADGA 

The coward slave we pass him by we dare be poor for all that! 

DGDG 

For all that! And all that! Our toils obscured and all that, 

DGADGA 

Their rank is but the guinniea's stamp, the man's the gold for 

all that! 

DGADGA 

But though on homely fare we dine wear hodden-grey and all that 

DGADGA 

Give fools their silks and knaves their wine; a man's a man for 

all that. 

DGDG 

For all that and all that. their tinsel ,show and all that. 

DGADGA 

The honest man though e're so poor is king of men for all that. 

DGADGA 

See yond snob they call,'the lord' who struts and stares and all 

that 

DGADGA 

Though hundreds worship at his word he's but a goof for all that 

DGDG 

For all that and all that; his ribbon,star and all that 

DGADGA 

The man of independant mind he looks and laughs at all that. 

DGADGA 

A Prince can make a belted knight, a marquis ,duke and all that 

DGADGA 

But the honest man's above their might,good faith he won't befall 

that 

DGDG 

For all that and all that their dignities and all that, 

DGADGA 

His pith of sense and pride of worth are higher rank than all 

that. 

DGADGA 

Then let us pray that come it may as come it will for all that 

DGADGA 

That sense and worth o'er all the earth shall be the goal for all 

that 

DGDG 

For allthat and all that;its coming yet for all that, 

DGADGA 

That man to man the whole world o'er shall brothers be for all 

that
