and another
Ye rugged barbecuers, Oh come and hae yer fill. They hae taen the Eel of Moray And layed him on the grill. He was a big fishy And of eels was the king It's the bonnie Eel of Moray Whose praises we do sing.
Long will the hungry Through the thick smoke look down Ere they see the Eel of Moray Is turning nice and brown.
Oh woe betide ye, Huntly. You can only blame yersel For I bid ye use the butter And the oil to baste him well. He was a braw fishy And he weighed 'most 14 pound. Now the Eel of Moray Is turning black and brown.
