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
The bauld pitcur fell in a furr
And Clavers gat a crankie-o
Or
I had fed an Athol gled
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
Refers to battle in 1689, where winner, Graham of
Claverhouse
(Bonnie Dundee) was slain, ending Jacobite hopes.
