Like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Carry the lad
That was born to be king
Over the sea to Skye
Burned was our homes
Exile and death
Scatter the loyal men
Yet for my sword, here in my hand,
Charlie will come again
Many's the lad
We fought on that day
Claymores were swinging weild
When the night came
Silenty laid dead on Culloden's field
Burned was my home
Exile and jail
Scatter the loyal men
Yet for my sword, here in my hand,
Charlie will come again
Burned was my home
Exile and death
Scatter the loyal men
Yet for my sword, here in my hand,
Charlie will come again
Speed bonnie boat
Like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Carry the lad
That was born to be king
Over the sea to Skye
Speed bonnie boat Like a bird on the wing Onward the sailors cry Carry the lad That was born to be king Over the sea to Skye Burned was our homes Exile and death Scatter the loyal men Yet for my sword, here in my hand, Charlie will come again Many's the lad We fought on that day Claymores were swinging weild When the night came Silenty laid dead on Culloden's field Burned was my home Exile and jail Scatter the loyal men Yet for my sword, here in my hand, Charlie will come again Burned was my home Exile and death Scatter the loyal men Yet for my sword, here in my hand, Charlie will come again Speed bonnie boat Like a bird on the wing Onward the sailors cry Carry the lad That was born to be king Over the sea to Skye Explain Request ×
