About

The kelpie is a mythical Scottish being that takes the shape of a horse and lurks in rivers and streams, waiting for unwary children. A child who touches a kelpie will find her hand is stuck to its hide, and will be dragged into the water and eaten.

Kelpie Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There was a warm wind with the high tide
On the south side of the hill
When a young girl went a-walking
And I followed with a will

Good day to you, my fine young lady
With your lips so sweetly full
May I help you comb your long hair
Sweep it from that brow so cool

[Chorus]
Up, ride with the kelpie
I'll steal your soul to the deep
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free
I'll ride with somebody else

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm a man when I'm feeling
The urge to step ashore
So I may charm you, not alarm you
Tell you all fine things and more

[Chorus]
Up, ride with the kelpie
I'll steal your soul to the deep
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free
I'll ride with somebody else

[Flute & Guitar Solos]

[Verse 3]
Say goodbye to all your dear kin
For they hate to see you go
In your young prime to this place of mine
In the still loch far below

[Chorus]
Up, ride with the kelpie
I'll steal your soul to the deep
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free
I'll ride with somebody else

[Chorus]
Up, ride with the kelpie
I'll steal your soul to the deep
If you don't ride with me while the devil's free
I'll ride with somebody else

[Outro]
Up, ride with the kelpie
I'll steal your soul to the deep
