play, play.
The Campbells are comin', Oho, Oho,
The Campbells are comin', Oho, Oho,
The Campbells are comin' to bormie Lochleven,
The Campbells are comin', Oho, Oho !
Upon the Lomonds I lay, I lay,
Upon the Lomonds I lay, I lay,
I lookit down to bonnie Lochleven,
And saw three perches play, play.
Great Argyle he goes before,
He maks his cannons and guns to roar
Wi' sound o' trumpet, fife, and drum,
The Campbells are comin', Oho, Oho !
