From the recording I WILL FLY LIKE AN EAGLE IN THE SKY
A song that confirms that all Americans who have Scottish ancestry have a right to claim their Scottish roots as part of their History. At the end of the day, the blood is strong!
Lyrics
SCOTTISH AMERICANS
key G3 HAMMERONS START IN Em
interlude intro
VERSE 1
WE HAVE SONS ACROSS THE OCEAN,
DAUGHTERS OVERSEAS,
THEY SAILED FROM CALEDONIA,
IN A TIME IN HISTORY.
SOME THEY WENT BY CHOICE,
SOME OF THEM WERE FORCED,
THEY SAILED FROM CALEDONIA,
TO AMERICAS FAR SHORE.
CHORUS
CHILDREN OF THE ANCIENT
HEAR THE MOTHERS CALL,
SCOTLAND STILL CALLS YOU
SONS AND DAUGHTERS ALL.
YOUR ROOTS ARE NOT FORGOTTEN,
YOUR NAME IT IS STILL KNOWN,
THE ANCESTRAL LINE REMAINS,
SCOTTISH AMERICANS.
VERSE 2
SO HERE US ALL AMERICANS,
WHOSE PARENTS WORE THE NAME,
INHERITED FROM SCOTLAND,
THE ROOTS OF SCOTTISH FAME,
THOUGH YOU LEFT US IN A CENTURY,
THAT WAS SO LONG AGO,
OUR HISTORY IS YOURS,
AND IS YOUR RIGHT TO OWN.
CHORUS
CHILDREN OF THE ANCIENT
HEAR THE MOTHERS CALL,
SCOTLAND STILL CALLS YOU
SONS AND DAUGHTERS ALL.
YOUR ROOTS ARE NOT FORGOTTEN,
YOUR NAME IT IS STILL KNOWN,
THE ANCESTRAL LINE REMAINS,
SCOTTISH AMERICANS.
VERSE 3
THOUGH CENTURIES HAVE PARTED US,
AND OCEANS O SO WIDE,
THE BOND HAS NOT BEEN BROKEN,
THE BLOODLINE HAS ITS RIGHT.
IN WARS WEVE JOINED TOGETHER,
AND FOUGHT SIDE BY SIDE.
DOWN THROUGH GENERATIONS,
CHILDREN OF SCOTLAND UNITE.
CHORUS X 2
CHILDREN OF THE ANCIENT
HEAR THE MOTHERS CALL,
SCOTLAND STILL CALLS YOU
SONS AND DAUGHTERS ALL.
YOUR ROOTS ARE NOT FORGOTTEN,
YOUR NAME IT IS STILL KNOWN,
THE ANCESTRAL LINE REMAINS,
SCOTTISH AMERICANS.
