Lyrics The Real McKenzies

The Real McKenzies

Scottish And Proud

Well gather round people

and I'll tell ye a story,

a story so auld

frae a time long gone by.

It comes frae the highlands

where the wind blows the heather.

To think of it now,

brings a trae te me eye...

Well the romans invaded

what's now called Great Britian.

But the Scots were so thugh,

they could not take all.

But they captured the English

and used them as slaves,

to toil day and night

to build Hadrian's Wall...

[Chorus]

With tartans a sailin'

pipers a whailin'

laddies and lassies

appart frae the crowd.

When the fightin' is done,

the battle is won,

there we'll be standin'...

Scottish and Proud,

oh yea we Scottish and Proud.

So if you're a fighter

and scrappin' a lot,

You'd best shy away

if you're scrappin' a Scot.

Wi' one fuckin' blow

yer head will be squished,

Then he'll let his scottie dog

lick the blood from his fist...

[Chorus]
