I walk alone through burning towns But the battle has been lost And there is nothing to defend At Culloden in seventeen fourty six Scotlands fate was sealed
We wrote a bloody history
I still see Gillis MacBean Standing wounded from the fight Back to the wall he fought And thirteen Redcoats died
But the Clans were beaten and destroyed Their wives are raped in shame Prince Bonnie's on the fight again
We were a people free and brave Now we are to doomed to fall
