Skye Boat Song

Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
You gotta carry the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye

Loud the winds howl, ooh, loud the winds roar
Thunderclouds rend the air
Baffled our foe, stand by the shore
Follow they will not dare

Whoa, speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Ooh, you gotta carry the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye
Lets go

Burned are our homes, exile and death
Ooh-ooh, scatter the royal men
Mm-mm, yeah, how the sword, cool in the sheath
Charlie will come again

Whoa, Speed bonnie boat like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Mm-mm, carry the lad that's born to be King
Over the sea to Skye

I said, over the sea to Skye
Yes
