The Real Mckenzies - Sawney Beane Clan lyrics

Go ye not by Gallowa Come bide a while, my frein I'll tell ye o the dangers there ??" Beware o Sawney Bean. There's nae body kens that he bides there For his face is seldom seen But tae meet his eye is tae meet your fate At the hands o Sawney Bean. For Sawney he has taen a wife And he's hungry bairns tae wean And he's raised them up on the flesh o men In the cave of Sawney Bean. And Sawney has been well endowed Wi daughters young and lean And they a hae taen their faither's seed In the cave o Sawney Bean. An Sawney's sons are young an strong And their blades are sharp and keen Tae spill the blood o travellers Wha meet wi Sawney Bean. So if you ride frae there tae here Be ye wary in between Lest they catch your horse and spill your blood In the cave o Sawney Bean They'll hing ye ap an cut yer throat An they'll pick yer carca** clean An they'll yase yer banes tae quiet the weans In the cave o Sawney Bean. But fear ye not, oor Captain rides On an errand o the Queen And he carries the writ of fire and sword For the head o Sawney Bean. They've hung them high in Edinburgh toon An likewise a their kin An the wind blaws cauld on a their banes An tae hell they a hae gaen.
