Rakkety Tam (Êëÿòâà âîèíà)
Rakkety Rakkety Rakkety Tam,
the drums are beatin’ braw.
Rakkety Rakkety Rakkety Tam,
are ye marchin’ off tae war?
A warrior from the borders came,
a buckler o’er his shoulder,
a claymore swingin’ at his side,
there’s no’ a beast who’s bolder!
O Rakkety Tam has sold his sword,
Ah scarce believe he’s done it.
He swore an oath untae a fool,
who took his pledge upon it!
