GUEST,CraigS Lyr Req: This Is No My Ain House (Jacobite song) (17) RE: Lyr Req: Jacobite rebellion song 31 Oct 00


The word "whig" meant a thief, particularly a horse thief (a hanging offence, one might add).

The last verse therefore means "Is it fair to throw a man from the house which he has inherited from his father while damning him for stealing it in the first place?"
