Thanx Wolfgang, with the help of the old thread I have put together the song as I knew it. Regards Ted

KISHMUL'S GALLEY

1. High upon Bennachie
On the day of days seawards I gaze
Watching Kishmul's galley sailing
Ah-hee ya-hoo fol-you-oh

2. Bravely homewards they battled
Through ragin' seas
No more no rope
Anchor cable or tackle has he
Ah-hee ya-hoo fol-you-oh

3. Then at last 'gainst wind and tide
He's brought her to
'Neath Kishmul's castle walls
Kishmul castle o' ancient glory
Ah-hee ya-hoo fol-you-oh

4. Here's red wine
And feast for heroes
And harping too
And sweet sweet harping too
Ah-hee ya-hoo fol-you-oh

Repeat V1
