Glad I could help. I did just receive a slight correction for this it is in the last verse. She said there was an error in what she originally sent so it is just in the last verse in the line that starts Quote | With eyes a'flashin' | Just a minor change. Full words are below with corrected line in it.
Quote | THE SONG OF THE CLYDE
I sing of a river I?m happy beside The song that I sing is the song of the Clyde Of all Scottish rivers it?s dearest tae me It flows from Leadhills all the way to the sea It borders the orchards of Lanark so fair Meanders through meadows with sheep grazing there But from Glasgow to Greenock in towns on each side The hammers ding dong, it?s the Song of the Clyde
CHORUS:
Oh the River Clyde, the wonderful Clyde The name of it thrills me and fills me with pride And I?m satisfied what e?er may betide, The sweetest of songs is the Song of the Clyde
Imagine we?ve left Craigendorran behind And wind happy yachts by Kilcreggan we find At Kirn and Dunoon and Innellan we stay Then Scotland?s Madeira, that?s Rothesay they say Or maybe by Fairlie or Largs we will go Or over tae Millport that thrills people so Maybe journey to Arran that can?t be denied These scenes all belong to the Song of the Clyde
- CHORUS -
There?s paw and maw at the Broomilaw they?re going doon the water for the Fair There?s Bob and Mary on the Govan Ferry wishing jet propulsion could be there There?s steamers cruisin? and there?s buddies snoozing and there?s laddies fishing frae the pier And Paw?s perspiring very near expiring as he rows a boat frae there tae here with eyes a-flashing, it is voted 'smashing' to be walking daily on the prom And me and Evelyn are in seventh Heaven as we stroll along with Dick and Tom and Dumbarton Rock to every Jean and Jock extends a welcome that is high and wide Seem to know that they are on the homeward way to hear the Song of the Clyde
- CHORUS - |
