Ray Fisher (sister of Archie Fisher) singing 'Willie's Fatal Visit'. From the album 'Traditional Songs of Scotland', released in 1991.
Watch in high quality.
I can't find the exact lyrics to this version of the song. But other versions can be found. I believe the song is part of the 'Child Ballads', a list of 305 centuries old ballads Francis James Child put together in the 19th century. If I find lyrics, I'll add them later If someone knows the lyrics or understands the dialect for typing them out, comment.
All credit goes to Ray Fisher. I only put the music and images together for Youtube to enjoy this greatly underexposed artist.
That would be appreciated. I think it's always nice to have the lyrics to songs on youtube. :)
