McKnees Origin: I Will Go / Land of MacLeod (82* d) Lyr Add: I WILL GO 31 Aug 99


I WILL GO.

CHORUS: I will go. I will go, when the fighting is over,
To the land o' MacLeod that I left tae be a soldier.
I will go. I will go.

When the King's son came along, he called us a' together,
Saying, "Brave Highland men, will ye fight for my father?"
I will go. I will go. CHORUS

I've a buckle on by belt, a sword in my scabbard,
A redcoat on by back, and a shilling in my pocket.
I will go. I will go. CHORUS

When they put us all on board, the lasses were singing,
But the tears came tae their eyes when the bells started ringing.
I will go. I will go. CHORUS

When we landed on the shore and saw the foreign heather,
We knew that some would fall and stay there for ever.
I will go. I will go. CHORUS

When we came back to the glen, the winter was turning.
Our goods lay in the snow and our houses they were burning.
I will go. I will go. CHORUS

Yours McKnees formerly known as Knock Knee'd one
