Guest Johnny Yank, this was sang by Ian Manuel and learned by me many years ago, and since forgoten, the last verse as far as I recall went- Well noo ave go'ten furlo' an tae Dundee toun al' gang it's thare al' show ma coumrades just hoo tae haun'el a gun Thay'l tak me out and thay'l staun a treat then al' begin tae blaw An' they'll think that I'v made sergent in the gallant forty twa Ye can talk can talk about yer first Royals an' Scotish Fusilers yer Aberdeen militia an' yer army volunteers the Sseaforths wae their stripet' kilts the gordons aye sae braw Man come bring the tartan 'o the gallant forty twa
