Silly Wizard - "Donald McGillavry"

YES, ALL of my uploads have the same picture reel of photos I found on the Internet of Scotland. I DO realize that some of the songs are Scottish, some are Irish, and some are just folk songs, but I uploaded the songs for the ears!!! Who cares what the picture reel is? Just enjoy these great songs!

@skyfrog696969 Branching out is good. Every genre of music has its good points; nothing is for everyone and no one likes everything, but look around. You might be surprised. ;)

It's nice to run into someone else who believes this!

@skyfrog696969 @skyfrog696969 Same for me, I mainly like Punkrock, but Silly wizard is one of my favorite bands :D

Lyrics:
Donald come up the hill hard and hungry,
Donalds come doon the hill wild and angry;
Donald will clear the gouk's nest cleverly, [gouk = cuckoo]
Here's to King James and to Donald McGillavry.
Come like a weigh-bauk, Donald McGillavry, [weigh-bauk = scales]
Come like a weigh-bauk, Donald McGillavry,
Balance them fair, and balance them cleverly:
Off wi' the counterfeit, Donald McGillavry.
Donald come o'er the hill but his tether, man,
As he were wud, or stang'd wi' an ether, man; [wud = mad][ stung by an adder]
When he comes back, there's some will look merrily:
Here's to King James and to Donald McGillavry.
Come like a weaver, Donald McGillavry,
Come like a weaver, Donald McGillavry,
Pack on your back, and elwand sae cleverly;
Up wi King James and with Donald McGillavry
Donald has foughten wi' rief and roguery; [rief = banditry]
Donald has dinner'd wi banes and beggary, [banes = bones]
Better it were for Whigs and Whiggery
Meeting the devil than Donald McGillavry.
Come like a tailor, Donald McGillavry,
Come like a tailor, Donald McGillavry,
Push about, in and out, thimble them cleverly
Up wi King James and with Donald McGillavry.
Donald's the callan that brooks nae tangleness; [callan = fine fellow]
Whigging and prigging and a'newfangleness,
They maun be gane: he winna be baukit, man: [baukit = balked]
He will hae justice, or faith he'll tak it, man.
Come like a cobler, Donald McGillavry,
Come like a cobler, Donald McGillavry;
Beat them, and bore them, and lingel them cleverly, [lingel = shoemaker's thread]
Up wi' King James and wi' Donald McGillavry.
Donald was mumpit wi' mirds and mockery; [lulled with flattery]
Donald was blinded wi' blads o' property; [blads = lots]
Arles ran high, but makings were naething, man, [Arles = Thrashing]
Lord, how Donald hes flyting and fretting, man. [flyt = scold]
Come like the devil, Donald McGillavry,
Come like the devil, Donald McGillavry; [skelp = chastise]
Skelp them and scaud them that proved sae unbritherly, [scaud = scold]
Up wi' King James and wi' Donald McGillavry!

[@johnmacleod4481]

Up wth King James and to Donald McGillivray.
