Highland Outlaw Lyrics


The green fields of the Highlands

echoes the tale

Born in the northern vapor

Bairn of the clan

Ancestry blood of rebels

burning his veins

Entrance of pale perukers

A forlorn auspice

Entangled in a loanplot

All out of gold

The will to be a leader

While malice grows

Spent the entire fortune

Running alone

His cattle's massacred

The bane prevailed

ROB ROY

Clansman runaway

ROB ROY

Honor in his name

ROB ROY

Sworn to cold revenge,

Outlaw of the Highlands

The Duke ruled for detention

No death allowed

Leaving his loved in tears

And home in flames

The depths of winter witnessed

this solemn oath

To loot the abhored blue bloods

Redeem the days of old

Facing the gale in dedication to rise

Against a giant of powder and lice

Turning the game around to favor the poor

Settle the duke, while herding the livestock abroad

Braided by hate, embolden two offbeat hearts

Pounding in jibe to bring down that baw

Destiny gifts a deal by Mahouns cold hands

and then gain forgiveness by lying about his allied

Blazing honor, scorching in his soul

Shine for the occasion, bounded to decline

Resigned as Campbell, McGregor in his root

Furious and proud, rebellious heritage's blood

Roy forced the bastard, ashore across the lake

Torment and anguish drive the pride away

The quest for freedom, a future for his bloodbounds

Beyond his strife, graying out, winter of life
