EmCome all ye young lassies whar Ghae ye been
Sae sleepy and drowsy, I ken by your een
In all the wide world, you'll ne'er find a frien'
Like the lads that were reared among heather
REFRAIN:
GAwa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls
Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant Emballs
For a dance in the barn's worth tGen in the hall
Wi' the lCads that were rGeared among DheatGher
EmTak' a walk roon yer cities, braw buGildings ootside
Gaze on the splendors and the wonder with pEmride
Fine ships have been built, on the bGanks o' the Clyde
By the lCads that were rGeared among DheatGher
EmWhen the queen wants some soldiers, she Gkens whaur to send
To the mountains and valleys, the hills and the gEmlens
Wi' their bonnets and plaids, they're aye tGrue tae the end
Are the laCds that were rGeared among DheatGher
EmNow England can boast for the sGweet-scented rose
And Ireland can boast for the shamrock she gEmrows
But gi' me the land, where the cGlear water flows
And the mCountains are coGvered with DheathGer
2x
Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls
Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls
For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall
Wi' the lads that were reared among heather
