The Highland Clearances

Lyrics

Ah, for the glens are lyin' bare,
 And the wee bit farm deserted,
 And the woods of Germany,
 Grows in rows o'er the broken hearted.
 Black is the wood on the roofance was braw
 But blacker still is your heart, Victoria,
 Sent your men untae our glens
 You'll need the Good Lord lookin' o'er ye.
 Many hae gane tae Americay
 You burnt their hames and garred them wander
 Gor a' would have stayed wi' the deil himsel'
 As bide an hour wi' the cruel Gillanders.
 Ah, for the glens are lyin' bare
 And the wee bit farm deserted
 And the woods of Germany
 Grows on rows o'er the broken hearted.
