Answer 2

I've been at New Year's parties where they do a bunch of Scottish songs as they begin to get drunk-- ones like "there's a wee dock in Doris". Nobody really knows all the lyrics, but it doesn't seem to matter. And there is the Wassailing Song:

Here we come a wassailing,
Among the leaves so green
Here we come a wondering
So fair to be seen.

Love and joy come to you
And to your wassail too,
And godd bless you and send you
A Happy New Year,
And God send you a Happy New Year.
