CaptainBloodscalp Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hark when the night is falling Hear! hear the pipes are calling, Loudly and proudly calling, Down thro' the glen. There where the hills are sleeping, Now feel the blood a-leaping, High as the spirits of the old Highland men. Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining river, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave. High in the misty mountains, Out by the purple highlands, Brave are the hearts that beat Beneath Scottish skies. Wild are the winds to meet you, Staunch are the friends that greet you, Kind as the love that shines from fair maiden's eyes. Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining river, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave. Far off in sunlit places, Sad are the Scottish faces, Yearning to feel the kiss Of sweet Scottish rain. Where tropic skies are beaming, Love sets the heart a-dreaming, Longing and dreaming for the homeland again. Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining river, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave "Not all men seek rest and peace, some are born with the spirit of the storm in their blood, restless harbingers of violence and bloodshed, knowing no other path."Ivory Coast Cutthroats?

CaptainBloodscalp Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 Fiddler's Green As I walked by the dockside one evening so fair To view the still water and take the salt air I heard an old fisherman singing His song Said, take me away boys my time is not long Wrap me up in my oil skins and jumpers No more on the docks I'll be seen Just tell me oul ship mates I'm takin' a trip mates And I'll see you one day on Fiddler's Green Now Fiddler's Green is a place I heard tell Where fishermen go when they don't go to hell Where weather is fair and the dolphins do play And the cold coast of Greenland is far far away Wrap me up in my oil skins and jumpers No more on the docks I'll be seen Just tell me oul ship mates I'm takin' a trip mates And I'll see you one day on Fiddler's Green Where the sky's always clear and there's never a gale, and the fish jump on board with one swish of there tails, You can lie in your hammock, there nothing to do, Cuz' the Captain's below getting drunk with the crew, Wrap me up in my oil skins and jumpers No more on the docks I'll be seen Just tell me oul ship mates I'm takin' a trip mates And I'll see you one day on Fiddler's Green When you get on the docks and the long trip is through There's pubs and there's clubs and Lassies there too Where the girls are all pretty and the beer's always free And there's bottles of Rum hanging from every tree Wrap me up in my oil skins and jumpers No more on the docks I'll be seen Just tell me oul ship mates I'm takin' a trip mates And I'll see you one day on Fiddler's Green Now I don't want a harp nor a Halo not me Just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea I'll play me old guitair as we sail along With the wind in the rigging to sing me this song Wrap me up in my oil skins and jumpers No more on the docks I'll be seen Just tell me oul ship mates I'm takin' a trip mates And I'll see you one day on Fiddler's Green: "Not all men seek rest and peace, some are born with the spirit of the storm in their blood, restless harbingers of violence and bloodshed, knowing no other path."Ivory Coast Cutthroats?
