Where have

Saw ye him thats far away, bonnie laddie, highland laddie
On his head a bonnet blue, bonnie laddie, highland laddie
Tartan plaid and highland trews, bonnie highland laddie.

Watching Wullie and his men, bonnie laddie, highland laddie
There our foes that burnt and slew, bonnie laddie, highland laddie
There at last they got their due, bonnie highland laddie.
Satan sits

Breaking sticks tae roast the duke, bonnie laddie, highland laddie
The blueidie monster gied a yell, bonnie laddie, highland laddie
Loud the lach gaed roon aHell, bonnie highland laddie.
Geordie sits

Had I my wish hed nosit there, bonnie laddie, highland

Neer reflect on sorrows past, bonnie laddie, highland laddie
Cherlie will be king at last, bonnie highland laddie.
