Jimmy Rankin Highlander ( Official Music Video)
From Jimmy Rankin s latest album Moving East available now courtesy of True North Records Highlander Writer: Jimmy Rankin I came here from Scotland three lifetimes ago On a coffin ship named Hector To a place called Pictou I trusted my old landlord Believed we were friends But greed was his mistress We parted ways in the end Bought a hundred wild acres Made my living the sea It was rough for a while but shes been good to me Got an ironore will, claymore in my hand One foot in the water One foot on the land Highlander a tough one to tame Islander salt in my veins Highlander right to the bone And if you dont like me Leave me alone I knew the love of a woman She stayed by my side While I toiled on the water Shed wade on the tide But I treated her unkindly One day she was gone There was no way around it I had to push on And on Im a highlander
