Killiecrankie |
Where hae ye been sae braw, lad? |
Where hae ye been sae brankie-o? |
Where hae ye been sae braw, lad? |
Cam' ye by Killiecrankie-o? |
An' ye had been where I hae been |
Ye wadna been sae cantie-o |
An' ye had seen what I hae seen |
On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o |
I fought at land, I fought at sea |
At hame I fought my auntie-o |
But I met the Devil and Dundee |
On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o |
The bauld pitcur fell in a furr |
And Clavers gat a clankie-o |
Or I had fed an Athol gled |
On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o |
Oh fie, MacKay, What gart ye lie |
I' the brush ayont the brankie-o? |
Ye’d better kiss’d King Willie’s loff |
Than come tae Killiecrankie-o |
It’s nae shame, it’s nae shame |
It’s nae shame to shank ye-o |
There’s sour slaes on Athol braes |
And the de’ils at Killiecrankie-o |
