The devil went up to Scotland, he was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind 'cos he was way behind: he was willin' to make a deal.
When he came across this young man blowin' on the pipes and playin' ‘em hot.
And the devil jumped out of a thistle clump and said: "Boy let me tell you what:
"I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a bagpipe player too.
"And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.
"Now you play some pretty good pipes, boy, but give the devil his due:
"I bet these pipes of gold against your soul, 'cos I think I'm better than you."
The boy said: "My name's Ian and it might be a sin,
"But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret, 'cos I'm the best that's ever been."
Ian blow up that bag and play your pipes real hard.
'Cos hells broke loose in Scotland and the devil deals it hard.
And if you win you get these shiny pipes made out of gold.
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul.
The devil picked up his pipes and he said: "I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingers and the chanter started to glow.
And he squeezed the bag under his arm and the drones began to hiss.
Then a band of demons joined in and it sounded something like this.
When the devil finished, Ian said: "Well you're pretty good ol' son.
"But if you'll sit down in that chair, right there, and let me show you how its done."
Fire in the highlands, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the settin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin, pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."
The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat.
He laid those golden pipes on the ground at Ian's feet.
Ian said: "Devil just come on back if you ever want to try again.
"I told you once, you son of a gun, I'm the best that's ever been."
And he played fire in the highlands, run boys, run.
The devil's in the house of the settin' sun.
Chicken in the bread pin pickin' out dough.
"Granny, does your dog bite?"
"No, child, no."

Lovely 9 parted version of Mason's Apron that.......... Sounds a lot like my recollection of Norman Gillies setting.
The tradition continues!
