The Corries wrote this song and it was regularly sung by the Ghillies as a folk song. Many years later the first and last verses were adopted as the Scottish Unofficial National Anthem but is the Official anthem of the rugby and football teams and Uncle Murdo refuses to sing it saying "it's a folk song written by the Corries".
As an English Rugby supporter I think its great when we win at Twickers to remind them of proud Edwards army and "send them homeward tae think again". Problem recently is they keep beating us there!
