Tae The Battle

(album: Clash Of The Tartans - 2000)

The world we know is changing fast
The walls are closing in
And now's the time to make a stand
Don't let the cowards win

We're beset by a common foe
Ye can hear the distant drums
Yes. We're a force, brave women and men
The scheme shall be undone

Who'll be the ones to take command my friends
Put down the guns and up the sword into the battle
Tae the battle again

They're coming for you to smash yer dreams
And strangle you with shame
So stand yer ground and don't back down
Or the struggle will be in vain

So sound the change and fire the pipes
We're headed homeward bound
Yer hearts and souls are burning bright
We're headed for higher ground

So remember the creed, remember the cry
Remember the ancient way
And we'll be the ones dug in with the hounds
We've taken the highest ground

We'll be the ones to take command my friends
Put down the guns and up the sword into the battle
Tae the battle again
