lirik lagu steeleye span - rogues in a nation
farewell to all our scottish fame
farewell our ancient glory
farewell even to our scottish name
sae fam’d in martial story
now sark runs over the solway sands
and tweed runs to the ocean
to mark where england’s province stands:
such a parcel of rogues in a nation!
what force or gile could not subdue
through many warlike ages
is wrought now by a coward few
for hireling traitor’s wages
the english steel we could disdain
secure in valour’s station
but english gold has been our bane:
such a parcel of rogues in a nation!
i would, or i had seen the day
that treason thus could sell us
my auld gray head had lain in clay
wi’ bruce and loyal wallace!
but pith and power, till my last hour
i’ll make this declaration
we were bought and sold for english gold:
such a parcel of rogues in a nation!
