Davy Steele)
Chorus:
United we're as strong as a mountain
United we're as deep as the sea
Stand together shoulder to shoulder
Sisters and brothers united and free
It seemed to be the right time, the right place, a love of country to the fore
Eager smiles on eager faces, a nation's heartbeat heard once more
But those in power knew just what they wanted, divide and rule was their cry
And when the votes were cast and counted, the hopes of thousands crushed by lies
Through despair and desolation, through the bitter tears they'd weep
Angry men and angry women awakened from complacent sleep
Fae the Borders tae the Highlands, council house or castle wa's
Kirk and Chapel, Chiel and Chieftain came together for one cause
The case was made for referendum, one vote to let the people know
Is it self-determination, a simple answer yes or no
Don't listen to those politicians who put greed first and country last
Their party line just clouds the issue, divide and fail just like the past
Don't be afraid to voice your anger, in your hands the future lies
Don't mutter quietly in the background - let them hear your battle cry
(as sung by Ceolbeg)
