Speed bonnie boat
|
Like a bird on the wing
|
Onward the sailors cry
|
Carry the lad
|
That was born to be king
|
Over the sea to Skye
|
|
Burned was our homes
|
Exile and death
|
Scatter the loyal men
|
Yet for my sword, here in my hand,
|
Charlie will come again
|
|
Many's the lad
|
We fought on that day
|
Claymores were swinging weild
|
When the night came
|
Silenty laid dead on Culloden's field
|
|
Burned was my home
|
Exile and jail
|
Scatter the loyal men
|
Yet for my sword, here in my hand,
|
Charlie will come again
|
|
Burned was my home
|
Exile and death
|
Scatter the loyal men
|
Yet for my sword, here in my hand,
|
Charlie will come again
|
|
Speed bonnie boat
|
Like a bird on the wing
|
Onward the sailors cry
|
Carry the lad
|
That was born to be king
|
Over the sea to Skye
|
