I have been looking for a version of this song as sung by Luke Kelly, and could 
not find it. So I figured it out, it sounds right to me. But open for any suggestions to it.
FarewFell to all our ScotCtish ways
FFarewell our aGncient FglorCy
FFarewell even to our  ScotCtish name
FSo famed in maGrtial FstorCy
CNow Sark runs oFver the CSolway GFirth
And FTweed rGuns to the COceFan.
To mCark wGhere FEnglands Cprovince sFtands
Such a Cparcel of Grogues in a FnatiCon
What force or guile could not subdue
Through many warlike ages
Is wrought now by cowards few
For hiring traitor's wages
The English steel we could disdain
Secure in Valor's station
But we`re bought and we`re sold for English gold
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation
O would or I had seen the day
That treason thus could sell us
My auld grey head had lyed in clay
With Bruce and loyal Wallace
But pith and power to my last hour
I'll make this declaration
That we're bought and sold for English gold
Such a parcel of rogues in a nation.

Secure in Valor's station

But we`re bought and we`re sold for English gold

Such a parcel of rogues in a nation

O would or I had seen the day

That treason thus could sell us

My auld grey head had lyed in clay

But pith and power to my last hour

I'll make this declaration

That we're bought and sold for English gold

Such a parcel of rogues in a nation.
