Farewell ye dungeons dark and strong,
Farewell,farewell tae thee,
MacPhersons time will no be long,
On yonder gallow's tree.

Sae rantingly and sae wantonly,
Sae dauntingly gaed he,
He played a tune and he danced around
Below the gallow's tree.
verse 2.
It was by a woman's treachorous hands,
That he was condemned to dee,
She stood upon a windae ledge,
and a blanket threw o'er me.
verse 3.
T'was the Laird o' Grant that Heiland saunt,
That first laid hands on me,
He pleads the cause o' Peter Broon,
To let MacPherson dee.
verse 4.
there's some come here to see me hang,
and some to buy my fiddle,
But before that I do part wi' her,
I'll break her through the middle.
verse 5.
The repreive was coming o'er the brig o' Banff,
Tae set MacPherson free,
but they put the clock a quarter before,
and hanged him tae the tree.
