the irish rovers - the massacre of glencoe lyrics

Loading...

cruel is the snow
that sweeps glencoe
and covers the grave o donald
and cruel was the foe
that raped glencoe
and murderd the house macdonald

they came in a blizzard
we offered them heat
a roof for their heads
dry shoes for their feet
we wined them, we dined them
they ate of our meat
and they slept in the house of
macdonald

cruel is the snow
that sweeps glencoe
and covers the grave o donald
and cruel was the foe
that raped glencoe
and murderd the house macdonald

they came from fort william
with murder in mind
the campbells had orders
king william had signed
put all to the sword
these words underlined
and leave none alive called
macdonald

cruel is the snow
that sweeps glencoe
and covers the grave o donald
and cruel was the foe
that raped glencoe
and murderd the house macdonald

they came in the night
when the men were asleep
this band of argyles
through snow soft and deep
like murdering foxes
among helpless sheep
they slaughtered the life of
macdonald

cruel is the snow
that sweeps glencoe
and covers the grave o donald
and cruel was the foe
that raped glencoe
and murderd the house macdonald

some died in their beds
at the hand of the foe
some ran through the night
were lost in the snow
some lived to accuse him
who struck the death blow
but gone was the house of
macdonald

cruel is the snow
that sweeps glencoe
and covers the grave o donald
and cruel was the foe
that raped glencoe
and murderd the house macdonald

cruel is the snow
that sweeps glencoe
and covers the grave o donald
and cruel was the foe
that raped glencoe
and murderd the house macdonald
