Written by Cranford Hollow and Greg Critchley

lyrics

King George sent his army north in seventeen forty five
to suppress the young pretender and his army jacobite
they marched to meet the scottish clan confident with pride
stopped our revolution but I made it out alive

it was nearly four years later when I sailed the northern sea
raising anchor out of glascow looking to the new country
I'll trade my misty highands for a split society (scenery)
and my scottish brogue and kilt for je suis en refugee

i stowed aboard an english ship that was bound for halifax
she was the good fair lady, her hull was brown and black
capt amherst and his crew knew the water and the sky
we reached canadian shores in june of 49
