Will you gang to the hielands, Leezie Lindsay,
Will you gang to the hielands wi' me,
Will you gang to the hielands, Leezie Lindsay,
My bride and my darling to be?

To gang to the hielands wi' you, sir,
Would bring the sad tear to my e'e
Aye and leave the green glens and woodlands
And streams o' my ain country.

I'll show you the home o the red deer,
On mountains where waves the tall pine,
And as far as the bound o' the red deer,
Ilk moorland and mountain is mine.

Will you gang to the hielands, Leezie Lindsay,

A thousand claymores I can muster
Ilk blade and its bearer the same,
And when round their chieftains they rally,
The gallant Argyle is my name.

Will you gang to the hielands, Leezie Lindsay,

There's dancing and joy in the hielands,
There's piping and gladness and glee,
For Argyle has brought hame Leezie Lindsay
His bride and his darling to be.

Will you gang to the hielands, Leezie Lindsay

2. Leezie Lindsay
(trad.) The Corries from Scotland played this on youtube and I loved it straight away. However, I decided to play it in 4/4 instead of 3/4. I'm not actually a scottish ballad singer but there is no chance to regret now, is there? --JoreJore adds a new twist to this by doing it in 4/4 time and making it a good bit more lively than it usually is in waltz tempo. I've heard a lot worse Scittish ballad singers than Jore! --Davy
