I will go, I will go
When the fighting is over
Tae the land of MacLeod
I left to be a soldier
I will go, I will go
The king's son came along, he called us all together
Saying, Brave Highland men, you will fight for my father
I will go, I will go
I've a buckle tae my belt, a sword in my scabbard
A red coat on my back and a shilling in my pocket
I will go, I will go
When they put us all on board the lassies were singing
The tears came to their eyes when they heard the bells a-ringing
I will go, I will go
When we landed on that shore and saw the foreign heather we
We knew some would die and lie there forever
I will go, I will go
When we came back through the glen winter was turning
Our families in the snow and our homes they were burning
I will go, I will go
