Killiecrankie - The Corries

Written By：Trad/Arr R. Browne & R. Williamson

Whaur hae ye been sae braw lad

Whaur hae ye been sae brankie-o

Whaur hae ye been sae braw lad

Cam' ye by Killiecrankie-o

An' ye had been whaur 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

An' ye had been whaur I hae been

Ye wadna been sae cantie-o

An' ye had seen what I hae seen

On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o

The bauld pitcur fell in a furr

And Clavers gat a crankie-o

And I had fed an Athol gled

On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o

An' ye had been whaur I hae been

Ye wadna been sae cantie-o

An' ye had seen what I hae seen

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

An' ye had been whaur I hae been

Ye wadna been sae cantie-o

An' ye had seen what I hae seen

On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o
