THE HAUGHS OF CRUMDEL.

As I came in by Auchendown,

A little wee bit frae the town,

Unto the Highlands I was bound,

To view the Haughs of Crumdel.

Sing tanderadel, tanderadel, tanderadel,

Unto the Highlands I was bound,

To view the Haughs of Crumdel.

I met a man in tartan trews,

I spier‘d at him what was the news ?

Says he, the Highland army rues.

That ere they came to Crumdel.

Sing, &c.

Lord Livingston rode from Inverness,

Our Highland lads for to distress,

And has brought us a‘ into disgrace,

Upon the Haughs of Crumdel,

Sing, &c.

The English General he did say,

We‘ll give the Highland lads fair play,

We‘ll sound our trumpets, and give huzza,

And waken them at Crumdel.

Sing, &c.
