The lyrics (words) to Auld Lang Syne:

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne ?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you’ll buy your pint cup !
And surely I’ll buy mine !
And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine (dinner time) ;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand my trusty friend !
And give us a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

To whom it may concern,

This song is in my book witch i spent all my money on for a alto saxophone and it only has the first 28 notes, i was wondering if that is the whole song? I don't think it is because i was playing it for my dad he kept singing when i was done so here is what i am asking you to do short and sweat, could you please e-mail the full length song because i was really hopeing to plat it for 6 grade graduation!

As far as I know the file here at MusicEdMagic is the whole song. It is repeated and has several verses, so when you get to the end you normally start over at the beginning singing different words to the same notes.
