One of my personal favourite Luke kelly songs, performed with the Dubliners. Enjoy! The songs history derides those members of the Parliament of Scotland who signed the Act of Union with England in 1707, comparing their treachery to the country with the tradition of martial valor and resistance commonly associated with such historic figures as Robert the Bruce and William Wallace. It has continued to be associated with Scottish nationalism and also been referenced in other situations where politicians' actions have gone against popular opinion.
@franklhutson both of them! Love them like my own country
