Highland Harry Back Again
My Harry was a gallant gay,Fu’ stately strade he on the plain;But now he’s banish’d far away,I’ll never see him back again.
Chorus.—O for him back again!O for him back again!I wad gie a’ Knockhaspie’s landFor Highland Harry back again.
When a’ the lave gae to their bed,I wander dowie up the glen;I set me down and greet my fill,And aye I wish him back again.O for him, &c.
O were some villains hangit high,And ilka body had their ain!Then I might see the joyfu’ sight,My Highland Harry back again.O for him, &c.
