Bonnymuir 1820

 Insurrection in Scotland. Wiki

Song written by Allan Murchie, Radical prisoner in Stirling Castle, while waiting to be transported for life to the tune ’Johnny Cope’

With pikes and guns we did engage;
With lion’s courage did we rage
For liberty or slavery’s badge
Caused us to fight that mornin.
