hi, does anyone have the lyric of this song?

I cant find it
Fianna
This might be it:

HIELAND SODGER

High up amang yon Heiland hills
There lives a canny maiden,
And she's gone oot ane fine summer's nicht
To watch all the soldier's paradin'.

CHORUS:

And they looked sae braw as they marched awa',
The drums they did rattle and the pipes they did blaw,
Which caused young Mary for to weep and say,
I will follow my Hieland soldier.


Ah, but, Mary dear, my wage is small,
And what if in battle I should fall,
I hae gang hame tae your Hieland hall,
Think nae mair on a soldier laddie !

Ah, but I got twenty pounds in the store,
And I've got a herd 'bout ten times more,
And I'll gie it to the laddie I adore,
And I'll follow my Hieland laddie.
Fionas
yes, that's it, thx
