The Highland Muster Roll
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Jock and Tam and a's comin'
Borland and his men's comin',
The Cameron's and MacLean's comin'
The Gordon's and MacGregor's comin',
A' the duniewastle's comin'!
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
MacGilvray o' Drumglass is comin'!
Winton' comin', Nithsdale's comin',
Cornwath's comin', Kenmure's comin',
Derwentwater and Foster's comin',
Withrington and Nairn's comin'.
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Blythe Cowhill and a's comin'.
The Laird o' Maclntosh is comin',
MacRabie and MacDonald's comin',
The MacKenzie's and MacPherson's comin'
A' the wild MacCraw's comin'.
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Dornald Gun and a's comin'!
They gloom, they glower, they look sae big,
At ilka stroke they'll fell a whig,
They'll fricht the wuds o' the Pockpuds
For many a bare arse is comin'.
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Little wat ye wha's comin',
Jock and Tam and a's comin'!
