• The Reivers

Listen, can ee hear the sound?
Enough tae make ye shiver
The whining gales are widow’s wails
That haunt oor dales forever



Its been fower hunder years and mair
Since sounds o’ Reivers filled the air
Nae longer bound tae pay black meale
Nae raids by night wi clash of steel

But though the men who rode are gone
A ghostly spirit marches on
Frae Langholm’s Esk tae Teviotside
A troupe of phantom Rievers ride

Chorus

Fire in the engine
Like blood in their veins
The cross-border Reivers
Are riding again
Fighting for vengeance
Cut tae the bain
The Reivers are Riding - Again



A hunder horses, border bred
Snortin steeds yet never fed
Wi banshee noise tae wake the dead
As if by Johnny Armstrong led


Steel horses pull a mighty team
The engine builds a head o’ steam
The wheels are squealing on the rails
Steel bonnets marching, hard as nails

Chorus


Riding by a Rievers moon
St Marys Loch reflects it doon
The horsemen charge on through the night
Silver shadows glimmer bright

Horses wakened from a dream
Wi flarin’ nostrils belchin steam
The thunder cracks, and abin it a’
Ye can hear the phantom whustle blaw

Chorus

An' if among the hills ye bide
When ye’r tucked up warm inside
Ye’ll hear the scream o the thundering train
The ghostly Reivers
The ghostly Reivers
The ghostly Reivers ride again!

Chorus x 2
