New Year's Eve is called Hogmanay in Scotland. Until quite recently, Hogmanay was celebrated more then Christmas in Scotland. There are always parties on Hogmanay which often include Scottish dancing and drinking Scotch whisky. When the bells strike midnight, everyone joins hands and sings the song Auld Lang Syne. People then go to "first foot" their friends. First footing is another Scottish custom. Traditionally, the first person to come into your home on the first day of the New Year should be a tall, dark-haired man, carrying a lump of coal.
AULD LANG SYNE

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And never bought to mind
Should auld acquaintance be forgot
And days o'lang syne?

Chorus
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We'll tak'a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne.
