Well Charles was born a Scotsman
But he left when he was three
And when he returned our blood did burn
Over Williams Liturgy
Good promise we did think then
Would come when a Scotsman reigned
But his Privy Decree and his book on her knee
Caused our Jenny to speak for me
Jenny-o  Jenny-o how your face did glow
In your voice rose over the Isles
It's the Devil in my ear you said in your fear
To the dean of old Saint Giles

Men stood behind their women
Books and stones they threw with glee
But Charles set his course the deed in force
Raise your voice for Jenny-o
Jenny-o Jenny-o how the force did grow
In a voice heard over the Isles
To say the Lord's prayer in the open air
Is nothing but Popery
The Covenant was taken through Sixteen thirty eight
Take your rusty claymore stand it close to the door
Soon we are off to bloody war
Montrose Montrose the fifth Earl rose
From Stirling to Aberdeen
As covenanter our new leader
Handsome prince of History

The favorite of the people was Alexander Leslie
Little crooked soldier our commander
Raised his sword for Jenny-o
Jenny-o  Jenny-o over borders we go
In support of Lord Argyll
Give us Hogmanay get out of our way
With your Episcopacy
Now these Lords of the Table
Campbell don't forget his name
Led the Scottish gentry to the Parliamentary
Then came Grahams treachery
Oliver Oliver faced the Engagers
For the king was not our foe
For when Charles lost his head our dreams lay dead
So the Devil told Jenny-o

Jenny-o  Jenny-o how your face did glow
As your voice rose over the Isles
It's the Devil in my ear you said in your fear
To the dean of old Saint Giles
