Obtained from http://www.dougiemaclean.com/index.php where you will find most of Dougie's lyrics unfortunately The Plooboy Laddies is not listed probably because it is traditional and the lyrics are in an earlier thread. Dougie has adjusted it a little for his version.

OVER MY MOUNTAIN
Music & Lyrics by Dougie MacLean. Published by Limetree Arts and Music

I'm walking out easy and I'm walking out slow
I'm taking this old road to a place that I know
And I don't feel the wind and I don't see the snow
Over my mountain

And it's cold, getting colder but I'm feeling so warm
I'm flying so high I just can't see the storm
It's a long time ago I was here on my own
Over my mountain

And isn't it strange how things happen to be
So many years on and he's no stranger to me
And all the old stories are easy to see
When I'm out over my mountain

So in sad isolation I'm feeling so good
I've drifted too far but I knew that I would
And it seems I am laughing and I knew that I could
Over my mountain

So I'm walking out easy I'm walking out slow
I'm taking this old road to a place that I know
And I don't feel the wind and I don't see the snow
Over my mountain


Regards
