Product Description

The Deil's Awa Wi' Th' Exciseman is a humorous song written by Scottish poet Robert Burns, who himself worked as an exciseman (taxman) from 1789 until his death in 1796. The song is from the perspective of a community revelling that the taxman has been taken by Satan and now they're free to distill and brew their alcohol in peace!
