The Highland Rogue

He travels by the backroads he travels by the night
Sometimes he runs from danger sometimes he stands and fights
He fights for Scotland's glory and he fights for rights of man
With the Jacobites he took a rebel stand

And he's called the Highland Rogue by the soldiers of the Crown
Wi' a bounty on his head sure they hunt him up and down
He leads a merry chase through the mountains and the glens
Rob Roy MacGregor and his Highland men

He fought at Kilicranki beside the bold Dundee
Against the English foemen to set ould Scotland free
Victorious in battle and the pipes did gaily sing
Their bonnets raised for James the Stuart king

And he's called the Highland Rogue by the soldiers of the Crown
Wi' a bounty on his head sure they hunt him up and down
He leads a merry chase through the mountains and the glens
Rob Roy MacGregor and his Highland men

When Claymores are a-clanking you'll find him at the fore
Robbing wealthy noblemen and giving to the poor
There's no a man in Scotland who could bring him to his knees
He takes their gold and cattle as he please

And he's called the Highland Rogue by the soldiers of the Crown
Wi' a bounty on his head sure they hunt him up and down
He leads a merry chase through the mountains and the glens
Rob Roy MacGregor and his Highland men

Tae the braes of Balquidder is where he will repair
He's ready for to face whatever fate awaits him there
He'll ride until they catch him he'll ride until he falls
He'll ride until the Devil comes to call
