[verse 1]
fareweel, ye dungeons dark and strang
a lang fareweel tae thee
macpherson’s time will no be lang
on yonder gallows tree

[verse 2]
’twas by a woman’s treacherous hand
that i was condemned tae dee
she cawed me o’er tae the windae sill
an’ a blanket she threw ower me

[chorus]
sae rantinly, aye, sae dauntinly
sae wantonly gaed he
he played a tune an’ he danced it aroon’
in ablo the gallows tree

[verse 3]
the laird o grant, oh, that hielan’ sant
that first laid hands on me
he plеads the cause o petеr broon
ach, let macpherson dee

[verse 4]
untie these bands fae aff my hands
an’ bring tae me my sword
there’s nae a man in aw scotland
who’ll brave him at a word
[chorus]
sae rantinly, aye, sae dauntinly
sae wantonly gaed he
he played a tune an’ he danced it aroon’
in ablo the gallows tree

[verse 5]
“oh, there’s some come here tae see me hang
an’ some to buy my fiddle
but before i do pairt wi him
i’ll brak it ower the middle.”

[verse 6]
he’s taen the fiddle into baith his hands
he’s brak it ower a stane
sayin, “no anither hand will play on thee
fan i am deid and gane.”

[chorus]
sae rantinly, aye, sae dauntinly
sae wantonly gaed he
he played a tune an’ he danced it aroon’
in ablo the gallows tree

[verse 7]
“oh, little did my mither think
when first that she cradled me
that i would turn tae the rovin trade
an’ die on the gallows tree.”
[verse 8]
a reprieve was comin ower the brig o banff
tae set macpherson free
he put the clock, aye, a quarter afore
and they hanged him fae the tree

[chorus]
sae rantinly, aye, sae dauntinly
sae wantonly gaed he
he played a tune an’ he danced it aroon’
in ablo the gallows tree
