As i came in by ferrickside on a may morning
I spied willie mackintosh an 'oor afore the dawnin'
Turn again turn again turn again i bid ye
If ye burn auchendoon huntly he will heid ye
Heid me or hing me they'll never fear me
Ill burn auchendoon afore the life leaves me
As i came by auchendoon on a may morning
Auchendoon was in a bleeze an 'oor before the dawnin'
Crawin' crawin' for a' yer crouse crawin'
I've burnt yer crops and tint yer wings
I'll burn auchendoon an 'oor afore the dawnin'
As i came in by ferrickside on a may morning
I spied willie mackintosh an 'oor afore the dawnin'
Turn again turn again turn again i bid ye
If ye burn auchendoon huntly he will heid ye
