Scotland (Fate of Our Nation) (tune is "Top Deck in Perth")

I know some day, We'll have our say But how much longer I'd love to see, Scotland free before I die And I'm still young, and it won't be long If we stand together We can make, the "Lion Rampant Roar"!
300 hundred years, of needless fears and emigration It isn't right, our brightest lights Must leave home We have so much, still left to give Don't let them take it It's time to make, the "Lion Rampant Roar"!
"bagpipe chorus"
Our wealth's been stripped, our backs unzipped And we've sat humbly It's time to rise, before the eyes of the world No need to kill, no blood to spill Put pen to paper Then we will hear, the "Lion Rampant Roar"!
And those who say, it can't be done Are gutless doubters To me it's plain, they have no shame They've lost their pride If not for me, If not for you Then for our children Let them hear, the "Lion Rampant Roar"!
