Piper of Dundee



The piper came to out town,

To our town, to our town

The piper came to our town

And he played bonnielie*

He play'd a spring the laird to please

A spring brent new from 'yont the seas

And then he gae his bags a wheeze

And played anither key



And wasna he a rougey, a rougey, a rougey

And wasna he a rougey, the piper o' Dundee



He play'd "The Welcome Ower the Main"

And "Ye's Be Fou and I'se be Fain"

And "Auld Stuart's Back Again"

Wi' muckle mirth and glee

He'd play'd "The Kirk", he play'd "The Queer"

"The Mullen Dhu" and "Chevalier"

And "Lang Awa' But Welcome Here"

Sae sweet, sae bonnielie



It's some gat swords and some gat nane

And some were dancing mad their lane

And mony a vow o' weir

Was ta'en that night at Amulrie

There was Tillibardine, and Burleigh

And Struan, Keith, and Olgivie

And brave Carnegie, wha' but he,

The piper o' Dundee.
