Are you saying that it is stupid to be proud of something that my people did? do you think it is stupid to be proud of my heritage?? if so maybe you are the stupid one

Great... Amazing...

@boguspurr, It does sound odd the way he pronounces it … more like 'pe - cathrin', but I've heard recordings do weirder things to common English word pronunciation in ordinary soft rock and pop music, so it might not necessarily be his pronunciation … I don't know … All the lyrics I've found on Google agree that it should be 'Pencaitland'.
-
@Gairlochan It should begin "A mile from Pencaitland on the road to the sea" - I can't figure out what he sings instead.
-
@boguspurr , the closest I can hear to anything like Pencaitland' is where he sings 'where the shadows OF SCOTLAND hang round you'. What kind of sound system are you listening to this through? Must be pretty rough …

@MarkHarmer, I reckon it would need Led Zep, with their talent for integrating folk into their rock and making it soar (e.g. Battle of Evermore amongst others) to really create and perform a rock version of this song, with John Paul Jones on his mandolin and our dear departed master of the beat, John 'Bonzo' Bonham to put serious muscle into it and really drive it home! Sandy Denny RIP would be brought back from the dead to add a ghostly, ethereal high end, of course, as in B of E.
FOLK ROCKS!

Were you trying to sing "Pencaitland" at the start? if so that is the weirdest pronunciation I've ever heard for it.

Thank you - don't know Sweet Sixteen but I'll run that past the band when we next rehearse as some of the others might know it. Thanks again for your comments.
