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, tanteradel, 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.
