But when the army joined at Perth,
The bravest e’er ye saw, Willie,
We did na doubt the rogues to rout,
Restore our king and a’, Willie,
Up and warn a’ Willie.
Warn, warn a’;
The pipers play’d frae right to left,
O whirry Whigs awa’, Willie.

But when we marched to Sherramuir,
And there the rebels saw, Willie;
Brave Argyle attacked our right,
Our flank, and front and a’, Willie.
Up and warn a’, Willie,
Warn, warn a’;
Traitor Huntly soon gave way,
Seaforth, St Clair and a’, Willie.

But brave Glengary on our right,
The rebel’s left did claw. Willie,
He their the greatest slaughter made,
That ever Donald saw, Willie.
Up and warn a’ Willie,
Warn, warn a’;
And Whittam fyl’d his breeks for fear,
And fast did rin awa, Willie.
