@robsargent4 The song is a traditional song with author unknown. The Corries songbook says their version is taken from the singing of Jock Anderson from Limiecleuch which is in the Borders. There is a recording of the old Borders folk singer and shepherd Willie Scott singing it on Napster. He doesn't sing the verse about England and Ireland etc -rather it is about Burns and Scott along with the ordinary folk being the lads that was reared among heather.
i love the corries excellent, and i have never herd this song because i only have lads among the heather vol.2 exceelent song ... was he lookin at the wrong camera at 0:25 when he was talknto the "people at home". roy and ronnie as so cool i love theyr voice
I'll second that, though I am a native speaker,I'd like to have them. I just can't finnd any lyrics for this. Or any albums that aren't extremely expensive. Damn it, why couldn't the Corries be popular over here.
Come all ye young lassies whar hae ye been Sae sleepy and drowsy, I ken by your een In all the wide world, you'll ne'er find a frien' Like the lads that were reared among heather Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall Wi' the lads that were reared among heather Tak' a walk roon yer cities, braw buildings ootside Gaze on the splendors and the wonder with pride Fine ships have been built, on the banks o' the Clyde By the lads that were reared among heather Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall Wi' the lads that were reared among heather When the queen wants some soldiers, she kens whaur to send To the mountains and valleys, the hills and the glens Wi' their bonnets and plaids, they're aye true tae the end Are the lads that were reared among heather Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall Wi' the lads that were reared among heather Now England can boast for the sweet-scented rose And Ireland can boast for the shamrock she grows But gi' me the land, where the clear water flows And the mountains are covered with heather Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall Wi' the lads that were reared among heather

entitled to be a Royal. We allow the Royal Family to continue to have the titles & privileges they have, but if we really wanted we could strip them of all their titles & privileges & in my opinion that we wouldn't be stripping anyone of anything that they're entitled to. Their ancestors simply stole the land from the people & said God gave it to them & it was their divine right to rule the rest of us. The way I see it, Parliament, as the elected representatives of the people (hopefully, if
they're honest) grants the Sovereign the right to reign over us & they confirm this at the start of every Parliament. In the age of constitutional monarchy, Royal status is a gift which is freely given (presuming Parliament does actually represent the people), not a God-given "entitlement".

England is not the problem.(There were and are loyal English Jacobites), It's simply a matter of a Stuart or a Lochiel family politely asking the Windsor's to vacate a Royal House which is not theyres by right!.......JamesVll would have protected the right's of the follower's of the Anglican church.

And so quarantine found me here, listening to scottish folk songs.
Scottish folks are one of the best!
Before I came accross this video I wasn't familiar with this song myself, but I liked it straight away. This is now one of my favourite Corries songs.
Every single one of the Corries songs is my favourite lol
This is gorgeous, like fantasy music. Special note to the bit of "Leezy Linsdsay" toward the end. Very smooth.
1 DANCE IN THE BARN IS WORTH 10 IN THE HALL.......WITH THE LADS THAT WERE RAISED AMONG HEATHER........AYE......sends a wee tear to me eye.....
If the queen wants some sojjers She kens whaur tae send tae the mountains and valleys the hills and the glens. Just BRILLIANT.
There Is Only One Queen The Queen Of Heaven Our Blessed Lady Mary.☘🇮🇪🎼🎼🎼

@TonyTaylorUK ta for the lyrics! what a wonderful song!
Love this one. Forgive my ignorance, but is this song traditional? Is it known by any other name?

Come all ye young lassies whar hae ye been
Sae sleepy and drowsy, I ken by your een
In all the wide world, you'll ne'er find a frien'
Like the lads that were reared among heather
Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls
Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls
For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall
Wi' the lads that were reared among heather
Tak' a walk roon yer cities, braw buildings ootside
Gaze on the splendors and the wonder with pride
Fine ships have been built, on the banks o' the Clyde
By the lads that were reared among heather
Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls
Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls
For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall
Wi' the lads that were reared among heather
When the queen wants some soldiers, she kens whaur to send
To the mountains and valleys, the hills and the glens
Wi' their bonnets and plaids, they're aye true tae the end
Are the lads that were reared among heather
Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls
Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls
For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall
Wi' the lads that were reared among heather
Now England can boast for the sweet-scented rose
And Ireland can boast for the shamrock she grows
But gi' me the land, where the clear water flows
And the mountains are covered with heather
Awa' wi' yer satins, yer silks and yer shawls
Yer soirees and yer parties and yer elegant balls
For a dance in the barn's worth ten in the hall
Wi' the lads that were reared among heather
Everyone please note: The correct title is "The Lads Among Heather," NOT "Lads Among The Heather"!!!!1

@gaconnochie Thanks for the explanation. It was much appreciated.
Would someone be so kind as to transcribe the lyrics of this song? I am not a native speaker of English and find it very difficult to follow.

Thanks; the US, hence a major impediment to understanding what the corries are saying.

None of you scots probably understand how beautiful this is.

What does a passport matter?
