Ed Miller, the Scotsman who has lived in Austin,+ Texas for quite a few years wrote his Emigrant song: AT HOME WITH THE EXILES. ( sung by Ed Miller on "Generations of Change" 2004) Mudcat thread on the song

He's also covered classics like "Caledonia" and some from the Irish experience like "City of Chicago." He's taken some lyric liberties with Tommy Sand's "When the Boys Come Rolling Home" to give a Scottish theme to the song of nostalgia for home. He has a deft hand for transformations. I was very taken with his "Rivers and Reivers" where he takes the classic "Rivers of Texas" - frequently re-written with rivers of other states - and intersperses the original verses with verses about the Scottish rivers, and changing the plot a wee bit. ("There's many a river in the Scots borderland').

There's a flavor in the body of his work of a strong Scottish identity while living in Texas & all are well worth a listen. Plenty of humor, too - his "At the Games" poking fun at Highland Games cliches & some rare Adam McNaughtan.
