O'er the Muir amang the Heather
Comin' through the craigs o' Kyle,
Amang the bonnie bloomin' heather,
There I met a bonnie lassie,
Keepin' a' her ewes thegither.
Chorus: O'er the muir amang the heather
O'er the muir amang the heather,
There I met a bonnie lassie
Keepin' a' her ewes thegither.
We laid us down upon a bank,
Sae warm and sunnie was the weather;
She left her flocks at large to rove
Amang the bonnie bloomin' heather.
While thus we lay, she sang a sang,
Till echo rang a mile and further
And aye the burden of the sang
Was, O'er the muir amang the heather.
She charmed my heart, and aye sin syne
I couldna' think on ony ither;
By sea and sky! she shall be mine,
The bonnie lass amang the heather.

The King's Shilling (Ian Sinclair)
Oh my love has left me wi' bairnies twa
And that's the last o' him I ever saw
He's joined the army and he marched awa'
He took the shillin'
He took the shillin' and he marched awa'
Come laddies come, hear the cannons roar
Tak' the King's shilling an' we're off tae war
Oh he looked sae prood and sae gallant then
Wi' his kilt and sporran an' his musket gun
And the ladies kissed them as they marched awa'
And they sailed awa' boys
They sailed awa', boys, by the Broomielaw
The pipes they played as they marched along
And the men they sang oot a battle song
"March on, march on," cried our Captain gay
And for King and country
For King and country we will fight this day
The battle echoed tae the sound o' guns
And bayonets flashed in the morning sun
The drums did beat and the cannons roared
And the shillin' didn't seem
The shillin' didn't seem much worth no more
Some lost the battle their bodies fell
Cut doon by bayonets and musket ball
And many o' these brave young men
Would never fight for
Would never fight for their King again
Oh my love has left me wi' bairnies twa
And that's the last o' him I ever saw
He's joined the army and he marched awa'
He took the shillin'
He took the shillin' and he marched awa'

Gin I were a baron's heir
And I could braid wi' gems your hair
And make ye braw as ye are fair
Lassie, would ye lo'e me?
And I would take ye tae the toon
And show ye braw sicchts mony an ane
And busk ye wi' a silken goon
Lassie would ye lo'e me?
Or should ye be content to prove
In lowly life unfading love
A heart that nought on earth could move
Lassie, would ye lo'e me?
And ere the lavrock wings the sky
Say would ye tae the forest high
And work wi' me sae merrily
Lassie, would ye lo'e me?
And when the braw moon glistens o'er
Oor wee bit field and heathery muir
Will ye nay greet that we're sae puir
Lassie, for I lo'e ye?
For I hae naught tae offer ye
Nae gowd frae mine, nae pearl frae sea
Nor am I come o' high degree
Lassie, but I lo'e ye!
