  1. Oh' the wanderlust is on me
    And tonight I strike the trail
    And the morning sun will find me
    In the lovely Lomond Vale
    Then I’ll hike it through Glen Falloch
    Where the mountain breezes blow
    And we'll dmm up in the evening
    In the valley of Glencoe

    Then swing along to a hiking song
    On the highway winding west
    Tramping highland glens and bracken bens
    To greet the Isles we love the best
  2. Islay, Jura, Scarba, Lunga
    And the islands o' the sea,
    Luing, Mull, C olonsay, staffa,
    Coll, Iona and Tiree,
    Sgurr of Eigg and Rhum and Canna
    And the Minch waves rolling high
    And the heather tinted Cuillins
    Of the lovely Isle of Skye
    Chorus
  3. Then I'll bivouac and slumber
    Till the dawn gives place to day
    And Itll wander by the river
    That inspired old Ossian's Lay
    Then Itll do some mountaineering
    On.the Bidean's snowy crest
    Just to view the Hills o' Derry
    And the islands o' the west
    Chorus
  4. When the wanderlust has left me
    And I grow too old to roam
    Still the memory will linger
    Of my lovely highland home,
    Silvery streams and mmbling rivers,
    Verdant vales and glorious glens
    And the pride ofCaledonia,
    Heather hills and bracken bens.
    Chorus
