Dunvegan's Drums Lyrics

When Dunvegan's Drums beat in the air
At the first of the Inverness fair
The liquor starts flowing
And the boys start going to town
With blood in their hair
The townie boys eye up the boys from the glen
They neither got money to spend
They take all the girlies
Dancing and twirlin'
And scrap around back in the end

Me mother, she told me when we left the island
"Keep your nose and your finger nails clean
Don't ever be shy
Always look in their eye
And always say what you mean"
Well I meant what I said when I called him a coward
Riddled with filth and disease
The silence was golden
As I was left holding my guts
In a pile at my knees

I remember the jackals, they gathered around
Laughing and watching me bleed
They fought in a pack and they beat themselves dumb
Rah-dah-dum-dah
Dunvegan's Drums
I remember the bastards, they ran in the night
When the Mounties showed up at the scene
They're all good for nothing, they're rabble and scum
Rah-dah-dum-dah
Dunvegan's Drums
