When I went romancing
I gave my thought to any wedding ring
Every bonnie lassy was
My highland fling

No chance I was chancing
I'm no the man you dangle on a string
I was canny waiting for
Real, real thing

Though I danced each girl in a twist and twirl
Nay one would do
And I went my way 'til the fatal day
In the fling I was flung with you

Now my heart is prancing
Gay as a lord and happy as a king
The years I'll weather, in the hame on the heather
With my one and only highland fling

Though they spoke me soft in the moonlit of
Nay one would do
'Til it came to pass to this lucky lass
In a fling I was flung with you

Now my heart is prancing
Nothin' about ya I'd be alterin'
Oh, the years I'll weather, in the hame on the heather
With me one and only
One and only highland
With me one and only highland fling
