Ewan McLennan with Tim O'Brien - Jock Stewart

 

 

Now my name is Jock Stewart,

I'm a canny gaun man,

And a roving young fellow I've been.

 

So be easy and free,

When you're drinkin' wi' me,

I'm a man you don't meet every day.

 

I have acres of land,

I have men at command,

I have always a shilling to spare.

 

Now, I took out my gun,

With my dog for to shoot

Along by the banks of the Spey.

 

So, come fill up your glasses

Of brandy and wine,

And whatever the cost, I will pay.

 

      The lyrics have many versions in this old Scottish melody.
