That ever Galloway saw.
Success to Kenmure's band, Willie! Success to Kenmure's band; There's no a heart that fears a Whig That rides by Kenmure's hand. Here's Kenmure's health in wine, Willie! Here's Kenmure's health in wine; There ne'er was a coward o' Kenmure's blude, [blood] Nor yet o' Gordon's line. O, Kenmure's lads are men, Willie! O, Kenmure's lads are men; Their hearts and swords are metal true, And that their faes shall ken. They'll live or die wi' fame, Willie! They'll live or die wi' fame; But soon, wi' sounding victorie, May Kenmure's lord come hame! Here's him that's far awa, Willie! Here's him that's far awa; And here's the flower that I lo'e best-- The rose that's like the snaw! THERE'LL NEVER BE PEACE TILL JAMIE COMES HAME |
