In the hills of old Scotland, where the winds blow so free
There's a tune in the air, like a bird on a spree
We gather together with a song on our lips
For the heart of the Highlands beats to Scottish folk's grips
Oh, we sing to the mountains, and we sing to the sea
For there's nowhere like Scotland
Wild and free
On the hearth by the fire, a soft purr in the night
The cats of the cottage keep our spirits so bright
They weave through our feet as we dance round the floor
A feline companion, forever adored
Raise a pint to the sky, to the lads and the lasses
The beer flows like rivers in our fine Highland glasses
We'll drink to our friendship, to the stories we tell
And the warm Scottish tavern, where the laughter will swell
With a cheer and a laugh, we raise up our glass
To the tunes of the Highlands, forever they last
The sea calls our name with its wild, crashing waves
A place for the bold, for the strong and the brave
We set sail with hope, to the edge of the blue
For the sea is our home, and its heart is so true
On the shore we will feast, with our fish and our chips
Wrapped in paper so warm, with salt on our lips
A meal for the hearty, for the sailor come home
For there's nothing like this when you've wandered and roamed
With a bite and a cheer, by the waves we will stay
For the sea feeds our soul in the Scottish way
With a kilt on my waist and a smile on my face
I'll dance through the glen with a powerful grace
For the tartan I wear tells the story of old
Of a land full of beauty, and a spirit so bold
Oh, the Scottish way, we sing and we cheer
With the sound of the pipes and a cold glass of beer
In our kilts we will dance, 'neath the moon's shining glow
For there's nowhere like Scotland, where the wild winds blow
