The Corries

The Bonnie Ship The Diamond

by The Corries
The Corries

Biography:

The Corries were a Scottish folk group which emerged from the Scottish folk revival of the early 1960s. Although the group went through several changes of line-up in the early days, it was as the partnership of Roy Williamson (1936 - 1990) and Ronnie Browne that it is best known. The early 1970s were the Corries' finest hour.

In 1962, Roy Williamson teamed up with Bill Smith and Ron Cockburn to form the "Corrie Folk Trio". Their first performance was in the Waverley Bar in St Mary's Street, Edinburgh.

IT WILL BE BRIGHT BY DAY AND NIGHT
WHEN THE GREENLAND LADS COME HAME
OOR SHIP FILLED UP WI OIL MY LADS AND MONEY TAE OOR NAME
WELL MAKE THE CRADLES FOR TAE ROCK
AND THE BLANKETS FOR TAE TEAR
AND EVERY LASS IN PETERHEID SING HUSH-A-BYE, MY DEAR
