Last night as I lay sleeping

A dream, it came to me

I thought I heard a piper play

The sweetest melody

People gathered round a dancing

And singing so merrily

They're all singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free

Singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free

From the busy heart of Glasgow

To Lochranza by the sea

O're the water to Kintyre

The pretties pace you'll ever see

To the pubs and bars of Oban

They're all proud of their old country

They're all singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free

Singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free

On the road to Drumnadrochid

There's music everywhere

For the piper plays for Nessie

A sweet and tender air

Through Glengarry's running rivers

Cascading to the sea

To the tranquility of Ullapool

Ah, now that's Scatland to me

Come wild and windy weather, Caledonia, ever free

When the fiddle plays from Scotland

They hears the piper's song

They came o'erthe sea to join him

They danced and they sang along

From the granite city southward

On the road to bonny Dundee

They're all singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free

Singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free

Now if you ever come to Scotland

Ever come to visit my home

You can hear the piper playing

Standing all alone

For he plays from Edinburgh Castle

That looks out to the sea

He'll have you singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free

Singing and dancing, Caledonia, ever free
