Loading...

oh come a’ ye tramps an’ hawker lads an’ gaitherers o’ blaw
that tramps the country around, came listen een an’ all
i’ll tell ta ye a rovin’ tale a’ the sights that i have seen
and it’s far into the snowy north a’ south by gretna green

wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day
wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day

well, i’ve done my share o humpin wi’ the dockers on the clyde
i’ve helped the buckie trawlers haul their herrin’ ower the side
i’ve helped tae build the mighty bridge that spans across the forth
an’ wi’ money an angus farmer’s rig i’ve ploughed the bonny earth

wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day
wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day

well, i’ve seen the high ben nevis a’ towerin’ to the moon
i’ve been run by crieff and callander an’ roun’ by bonnie doon
well, i’ve drown in nethy’s silv’ry tides an’ places i taken
an’ it’s far into the snowy north lies urquhart’s bonnie glen, ah no

wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day
wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day
well, oftimes i’ve laughed unto myself when trudgin’ down da’ road
wi’ my tore rags round my blistered feet an’ my face burnt as toast
wi’ lums o’ cake an’ tattie scones whangs o’ braxy ham
neh giein a thought frae whaur been less a’ whaur i’m gang

wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day
wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day

well, i’m happy in the summertime beneath the brigth blue sky
neh thinkin’ in the mornin’ while at nicked i’ll hae to lie
in barn or byre or anywhere dossin’ in tha hay
ah, and if the weather treats me right i’m happy every day, was

wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day
wi’ my to da di my to do di
my to ra diddle da day
