[Intro]
E A E B E
[Verse 1]
E A E
In the Year Of The Sheep and the burnin’ time
E A B
They cut our young men in their prime
E A E
The old Scots way was a hangin’ crime
E B E
For the Gaels of Cale-doni-a
B E
There’s a den for the fox, a hedge for the hare
A E B
A nest in the tree for the birds of the air
E A E
But in a’ Scotland there’s no place there
E B E
For the Gaels of Cale-doni-a
[Chorus]
E A E
But there’s no use getting’ fran-tic
E A B
It’s time tae hump yer load
E A E
Across the wild At-lan-tic
E B E
On the Desti-tution Road
[Instrumental]
E A E B E
[Verse 2]
E A E
The bailiffs came wi’ the writ and all
E A B
And the gallant lads of the Forty Twa
E A E
They drove ye oot in the sleet and snaw
E B E
The Gaels of Cale-doni-a
B E
When yer house was burned and yer crops as well
A E B
Ye stood and wept in the blackened shell
E A E
And the winter moor was a living hell
E B E
For the Gaels of Cale-doni-a
[Chorus]
E A E
But there’s no use getting’ fran-tic
E A B
It’s time tae hump yer load
E A E
Across the wild At-lan-tic
E B E
On the Desti-tution Road
[Instrumental]
B E
A E B
E A E
E B E
[Verse 2]
E A E
The plague and the famine they dragged ye doon
E A B
As ye made yer way tae Glesga toon
E A E
Where ye’d heard o’ a ship that was sailin’ soon
E B E
For the shores of Nova Scoti-a
B E
And ye sold yer gear, ye paid yer fare
A E B
Wi’ yer heid held high though yer heart was sair
E A E
And ye bid farewell forever mair
E B E
Tae the glens of Cale-doni-a
[Chorus]
E A E
But there’s no use getting’ fran-tic
E A B
It’s time tae hump yer load
E A E
Across the wild At-lan-tic
E B E
On the Desti-tution Road
[Verse 3]
E N.C.
The land was cleared and the deal was made
E N.C.
Noo an English lord in a tartan plaid
E N.C.
He struts and stares as the memories fade
E B E
Of the Gaels of Cale-doni-a
B E
And he hunts the deer in the lonely glen
A E B
That once was home to a thousand men
E A E
And the wind on the moor sings a sad refrain
E B E
For the Gaels of Cale-doni-a
[Chorus]
E A E
But there’s no use getting’ fran-tic
E A B
It’s time tae hump yer load
E A E
Across the wild At-lan-tic
E B E
On the Desti-tution Road
[Chorus]
E A E
But there’s no use getting’ fran-tic
E A B
It’s time tae hump yer load
E A E
Across the wild At-lan-tic
E B E
On the Desti-tution Road
