Lyrics

James Hogg version

Stanza 1

Whare hae ye been sae braw, lad?

Whare hae ye been sae brankie, O?

Whare hae ye been sae braw, lad?

Came ye by Killicrankie, O?

Chorus

An ye had been whare I hae been,

Ye wadna been sae cantie, O;

An ye had seen what I hae seen,

I' the braes o' Killicrankie, O.

Stanza 2

I faught at land, I faught at sea,

At hame I faught my auntie, O;

But I met the devil and Dundee

On the braes o' Killicrankie, O.

(Chorus)

Stanza 3

The bauld Pitcur fell in a furr,

And Clavers got a clankie, O,

Or I had fed an Athol gled

On the braes o' Killicrankie, O.

(Chorus)

Stanza 4

O fie, Mackay, what gart ye lie

I' the bush ayont the brankie, O?

Ye'd better kiss'd King Willie's loof,

Than come to Killicrankie, O.

It's nae shame, it's nae shame,

It's nae shame to shank ye, O;

There's sour slaes on Athol braes,

And deils at Killicrankie, O.

The Braes o' Killiecrankie
