Com all ye tramps an the hawkers lads An gaitherers o blaw That tramps the contrie rownd an rownd Com lissen an an a'
A'll tell tae ye a rovin tale O sites that A hae seen It's far intae the snawy north An sooth bi Greetna Green
Aft tyms A've laufd intae mysel' When A trudged on the road My tor rags rownd my blister't feet My face as brown as toad's Wi lums o cake an tattie scons Wi whangs o braxie ham
No gien the thocht frae whaur A've com An lest frae whaur A'm gaun A've don my share o humpin wi The dockers on the Clyde
I've helped in Buckie trawlers haul The herrin o'er the side A help tae build The Michty Bridge That spans the busy Forth
An wi mony an Angus fairmer's trig A've plooed the bonnie earth A'm happy in the summertime Beneath the bricht blue sky
No thinkin in the mornin whaur At nicht A'll hae tae lie In barn or byre or anywhaur Dossin oot amang the hay An if the weather treats me richt A'm happy every day.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
