(Gordon Menzies)For most of my life I have wandered the world
Through many proud nations with flags all unfurled
But in all of my travels no prouder flag I've found
Than the red rampant lion on the golden ground
It's the red rampant lion of Scotland
North by the Shetlands and south by the Tweed
It's honoured forever in story and deed
First into battle it always could be found
The red rampant lion on the golden ground
It's the red rampant lion of Scotland
We've lost men at Flodden, at Flanders and Spain
More at Culloden and El Alamein
But we've never been conquered and still we rally round
The red rampant lion on the golden ground
It's the red rampant lion of Scotland
The thistle is bonnie when flowering alone
But what dart or medal she'll cut tae the bone
And tae Scotland my darling my hairt is ever bound
By the red rampant lion on the golden ground
It's the red rampant lion
The lion of Scotland
Of Scotland united and free
(as sung by Gaberlunzie)
