McPherson's Rant

Lyrics

Farewell ye dungeons, dark & strong
 This wretches destiny
 MacPherson's day will nae be long
 Allow the gallows tree
 Say rauntingly, say wantonly
 And undauntedly ga'ed he
 And he played a spring and danced it 'round
 Allow the gallows tree
 Well I've lived me a life of stearf and strife
 On mony a bloody battle plain
 But it breaks my heart I must depart
 And nae avenged I be
 So take these bands frae aff me hands
 And bring to me my sword
 For there nae be a man in all the land
 I'll brave him at one word
 So farewell light and me sun shine bright
 And all benath the Highland skies
 MacPherson's name will nae distaine
 The wretch who will nae die
