462 . Song—The Bannocks o’ Bear Meal

Chorus—Bannocks o’ bear meal,

Bannocks o’ barley,

Here’s to the Highlandman’s

Bannocks o’ barley!

WHA, in a brulyie, will

First cry a parley?

Never the lads wi’ the

Bannocks o’ barley,

Bannocks o’ bear meal, &c.

Wha, in his wae days,

Were loyal to Charlie?

Wha but the lads wi’ the

Bannocks o’ barley!

Bannocks o’ bear meal, &c.
