"Cam Ye O'er Frae France" is a Scottish folk song mocking King George I. It was written around the time of the Jacobite risings. Lyrics provided below:
Cam ye o'er frae France? Cam ye doon by Lunnon?
Saw ye Geordie Whelps and his bonnie woman?
Were ye at the place ca'd the Kittle Housie?
Saw ye Geordie's grace riding on a goosie?
Geordie, he's the man, there is little dout o't
He's done a' he can, wha can dae wi'oot it?
By there cam a blade linkin' like my lordie
He wad drive a trade at the loom o Geordie
Though that claith were bad, blythly may we niffer
Gin we get a wab, it makes little differ
We hae tint oor plaid, bannet, belt and swordie
Ha's and mailins braid-but we hae a Geordie!
Jocky's gane to France wi Montgomery's lady
There they learn to dance: Madam, are ye ready?
They'll be back belyve belted, brisk and lordly
Brawly may they thrive to dance a jig wi Geordie!
Hey for Sandy Don! Hey for Cockolorum!
Hey for Bobbin' John and his Hieland Quorum!
Mony's the sword and lance swings at Hieland hurdie
As they skip and dance o'er the bum o Geordie!
Cam ye o'er frae France? Cam ye down by Lunnon?
Saw ye Geordie Whelps and his bonnie woman?
Were ye at the place ca'd the Kittle Housie?
Saw ye Geordie's grace riding on a goosie?

That Goosie got ol' Geordie actin' foolish.
The Sow got that rump tho...
Actually goodie and the sow were not Bonnie lasses
But soldiers of the rebellion. It’s a symbol.

Never heard a better musician
Good one. I like the Steeleye Span version too.
Steeleye span version is fantastic! Maddie is the best!
George III of Denmark, Queen Anne's husband, was also a Guelph.

While i am not a fan of christianity, i have a huge amount of respect for the Jacobites, as we finns had a similiar struggle against occupation. Nationalism lives!
the old ways will return to glory once again
They weren't nationalist they were Catholic traditionalists

British class war
The Jacobites were monarchists, supporting a king against another king supported by monarchists. Class had very little to do with it.
Almost all conflcits in history have to do with class struggle. The fact that there were divisions bettween Williamites and Jacobites such as religion and ethnicity signify a war that must be studied for its social aspect as well.
Would you mind explaining how you got to that conclusion? The things you mentioned (religious and enthnic/national faultline), along with the fact that the Jacobites had the law on their side or at least felt they did, seem to be a completely adequate explanation for this conflict. By your profile picture, it seems to me like your worldview might make you see class conflict where none exists.
The Jacobites were ethnically Scottish and follow Catholicism while the Williamites were mainly English and followed Protestantism. Although the cause of the war was focused around Monarchy the reasons of the conflict had surely deeper routes. I cannot help it but see it as all conflicts, a struggle between oppressed (Scottish) and oppressors (English) on the other hand the "glorious" revolution did brought progress and constitutionalism. I need to dwelve more on the Jacobite wars.
A non-negligible part of the Jacobites were english and followed various flavors of protestantism. Scottish nationalism and outrage at Parliament doing as it pleased had in the past been reason enough for war and combined here it's no surprised that these uprisings happened. The relationship between Scotland and England is also more complex than a simple dynamic of oppressor and oppressed. The Scottish and English are two distinct ethnic and cultural groups forced to share a limited landmass. Invasions went back and forth, and England only came out as the dominant force because it was larger.
Don't get me wrong, class wars can and have happened. But not all conflicts are between oppressor and oppressed. When it comes to things like scarce resources, dominance of a shared region or even the elimination of a possible future threat, people can get bellicose, no matter who is stronger at the time.
