One New Year's Eve in Glasgow town
When all we had was half a crown
A bunch of us thought we'd prowl around
And find some fun in Rothsea-o1
We wandered out Victoria Street
We didn't care much for snow or sleet
And at half-past-two with achin' feet
We found ourselves in Rothsea-o

A dithum a doo a dum a day
A dithum a doo a dad a no
A dithum a doo a dum a day
The night we went to Rothsea-o

Tom Clancy here, who's a bit of a lout
Said he'd treat us all to a pint of stout
So as quick as we could we all set out
For a public house in Rothsea-o.
Said I, “My lads I'd like to sing.”
Says I, “You'll do no such a thing!”
I said, “Clear the room and we'll make a ring
And I'll fight ye all in Rothsea-o!”

A dithum a doo a dum a day
A dithum a doo a dad a no
A dithum a doo a dum a day
The night we went to Rothsea-o

We had to find a place to sleep
We were all too drunk to even creep
We found a place that was really cheap
In a boarding house in Rothsea-o
We all laid down to take our ease
When somebody happened for to sneeze
And he wakened half a million fleas
In a single room in Rothsea-o

A dithum a doo a dum a day
A dithum a doo a dad a no
A dithum a doo a dum a day
The night we went to Rothsea-o

There were several different kinds of pests
They ran and they jumped inside our vests
They got in our hair and they built their nests
And they cried “Hurrah for Rothsea-o!”
Says I, “I think we'll head for home,”
And we swore we never more would roam
And we're scratching still as we sing this poem
Of the night we went to Rothsea-o

A dithum a doo a dum a day
A dithum a doo a dad a no
A dithum a doo a dum a day
The night we went to Rothsea-o

A dithum a doo a dum a day
A dithum a doo a dad a no
A dithum a doo a dum a day
The night we went to Rothsea-o
