Lyrics

Come walk in the shadows of past times
That gave us the right to be free
I'd like to show you the hard times
That made you and me

They're fighting for people they don't know
Not sure of the side they are on
Promised the price of their next meal
Scots will fight on

CHORUS
It's been this way down the ages
It's happened time and again
Come walk in the shadows of past times
Come walk with me

The nobles will work all their deals while
The peasants will fight to survive
Who does the country belong to
The men who have died

You know Scotland's history's a proud one
It's full of passion and strife
No-one can change what is done now
It echoes in life

CHORUS
It's been this way down the ages
It's happened time and again
Come walk in the shadows of past times
Come walk with me
