Chorus: I will go, I will go, When the fighting is over, To the land of mcleod, That I left to be a soldier, I will go, I will go. When the king's son came along, He called us together, Saying brave highland men, Will ye fight for my father, I will go, I will go. I've a buckle on my belt, A sword in my scabbard, I've a red coat on my back, And a shilling in my pocket, I will go, I will go. When they put us all aboard, The lasses were singing, But the tears came to their eyes, When the bells started ringing, I will go, I will go. When we landed on the shore, And saw the foreign heather, We knew that some wood fall, And would lie there forever, I will go, I will go. When we came back to the glen, The winter was turning, The snow lay on the ground, And our houses were burning, I will go, I will go. I will go
