You're a stranger to these hills

You've bought yourself miles of tartan

And stories of their fathers of old

Whiskey when the weather grew cold

Then along came the great improvers

To the land of the brave and the free and the good

Look to the south I tell you

That the black man has it cruel and hard

But you don't have to look any further

但你不必再寻觅

That the rumble of stones in our own backyard

And oh sad the day

And all that's left are a fading few

只剩下一点残垣断壁

Yes sir you may have paid good money for it
