A Scottish Soldier - The Sign Posters

There was a soldier a Scottish soldier

Who wandered far away and soldiered far away

There was none bolder with good broad shoulder

He fought many affray and fought and won

He'd seen the glory he'd told the story

Of battles glorious

Deeds victorious

But now he's sight

His heart is crying

To leave those green hills of Tyrol

Because those green hills are not highland hills

Or the island hills they're not my land's hills

And fair as these green foreign hills may be

They are not the hills of home

And now this soldier this Scottish soldier

Who wandered far away and soldiered far away

Sees leaves are falling and death is calling

And he will fade away in that far land

He called his piper

His trusty piper

And bade him sound the way

A pibroch sad to play

Upon a hillside a Scottish hillside

Not on those green hills of Tyrol

Because those green hills are not highland hills

Or the island hills they're not my land's hills

And fair as these green foreign hills may be

They are not the hills of home

And now this soldier this Scottish soldier

Will wander far no more and soldier far no more

And on a hillside

A Scottish hillside

You'll see a piper play his soldier home

He's seen the glory

He's told the story

Of battles glorious

And deeds victorious

The bugle's ceased now

He is at peace now

Far from those green hills of Tyrol

Because those green hills are not highland hills

Or the island hills they're not my land's hills

And fair as these green foreign hills may be

They are not the hills of home
