Whaur hae ye been sae braw, lad? Whaur hae ye been sae brankie-o? Whaur hae ye been sae braw, lad? Come 'ye by Killiecrankie-o? An' ye had been whaur I hae been Ye wadna been sae cantie-o An' ye had seen what I hae seen On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o I fought at land, I fought at sea At hame I fought my auntie-o But I met the Devil and Dundee On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o The bauld pit cur fell in a furr And Clavers gat a crankie-o Or I had fed an Athol gled On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o Oh fie, MacKay, What gart ye lie I' the brush ayont the brankie-o? Ye'd better kiss'd King Willie's lofe Than come tae Killiecrankie-o It's nae shame, it's nae shame It's nae shame to shank ye-o There's sour slaes on Athol braes And the de'ils at Killiecrankie-o
Just proves that we all have different tastes! But Corries and uncreative are words I would never use in the same sentence (-: To me, their music had more variety and creativity than almost any other group I have ever heard.
The way Roy and Ronnie interpreted and sang Scotland'songs for all of us non - Scotland to understand is unsurpassed, and never will be better done by any other Artists of Scottish Folk/Traditional music! The Corries Abu!
`..,and Claver`s got a clankie`... Refers to the bullet(a random shot)that felled Dundee-unnoticed till after the battle. Then the Cameronians beat the Jacobites in a urban battle at Dunkeld a short bit later.
This is by far the best version.
Whaur hae ye been sae braw, lad?
Whaur hae ye been sae brankie-o?
Whaur hae ye been sae braw, lad?
Come 'ye by Killiecrankie-o?
An' ye had been whaur I hae been
Ye wadna been sae cantie-o
An' ye had seen what I hae seen
On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o
I fought at land, I fought at sea
At hame I fought my auntie-o
But I met the Devil and Dundee
On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o
The bauld pit cur fell in a furr
And Clavers gat a crankie-o
Or I had fed an Athol gled
On the braes o' Killiecrankie-o
Oh fie, MacKay, What gart ye lie
I' the brush ayont the brankie-o?
Ye'd better kiss'd King Willie's lofe
Than come tae Killiecrankie-o
It's nae shame, it's nae shame
It's nae shame to shank ye-o
There's sour slaes on Athol braes
And the de'ils at Killiecrankie-o
Genuinely needed lyrics XD
Wrong lyrics. U gave the corries PC bersion switching out fighting the french for the auntie-o.
Just had to say. Sorry.
Alastair McDonald is one of the greatest Scotsmen to put Scotland to song never get tired of hearing him
Бывал бы ты, где я бывал,
Ты б так не улыбался, брат.
Видал бы ты, что я видал
На склонах Килликранки, брат.

He was a scottish oatriot. Bless his soul.
This song is far more catchy than it ought to be.
Alastair got a way with songs f'sure, a mile up from the corries or any other version imo
I like this song sung by almost anyone, especially the Corries and Corrie Folk Trio . I find this one a little too fast.
good version, love it.
