The McCalmans - Come A' Ye Tramps And Hawker Lads lyrics

Artist: The McCalmans

album: Scottish Songs


Come all ye tramps and hawker lads, ye gaitherers o' blaw
That tramps the country roon' and roon', listen ane and a'
I'll tell tae you a rovin' tale o' sichts that I hae seen
Far up intae the snowy north and south by Gretna Green
I've seen the high Ben Lomond towerin' tae the moon
I've been by Crieff and Callander and doon by bonnie Doune
I've seen Loch Ness's silvery tides, places ill tae ken
Far up intae the snowy north lies Urquhart's fairy glen
I'm happy in the summer, beneath the bright blue sky
No thinkin' where I'm going tae, or where I'm going to lie
In barn or byre or onywhere, or oot among the hay
And if the weather it be fine, I'm happy every day
Ofttimes I've laughed untae mysel' when trudgin' doon the road
Wi' a pack o' blaw upon my back, my face as broon's a toad
Wi' lumps o' cake an' tattie scones an' cheese and braxy ham
No thinking whaur I'm coming frae, or whaur I'm gaun tae gang
Well, I think I'll go to Paddy's land, I'm makin' up my mind
For Scotland's greatly altered no, and I cannae raise the wind
But I will trust in providence gin providence prove true
And I will sing of Erin's isle when I come back to you
