HIGHLAND LADDIE.
Oh where, tell me where, is your Highland laddie
gone?
Oh where, tell me where, is your Highland laddie
gone?
He is gone with streaming banners, where noble
deeds are done,
And its oh in my heart but I wish him safe at home
O what, tell me what, did your Highland laddie
wear?
O what, tell me what, &c.
A bonnet with a lofty plume, the gallant pledge of
war.
And a plaid across his manly breast, that soon (illegible text)
wear a star.
Oh where, tell me where, did your Highland ladd
stay?
Oh where tell me where, &c.
He dwelt beneath the Holly-tree beside the rapid
Spey,
And mony a blessing followed him the day he gaeli(illegible text)
away
Ah suppose ah suppose that some crucl cruel wound
Should pierce your Highland laddie's breast, and a
your hopes confound;
The pipes should play a cheerful strain the banne
round him fly,
