SCOTLAND

LYRICS:

I WAS JUST A LAD WHEN MY DADDY SAID

SON WERE GOING FAR AWAY

OVER THE SEA TO A NEW COUNTRY

WHERE THE SUN SHINES EVERY DAY

I LOVED THAT HOME WHERE I WAS BORN

WHERE MY MOTHER DIED

I’LL NEVER FORGET THE DAY WE LEFT

HOW I BROKE DOWN AND CRIED

CHORUS:

SCOTLAND I’M COMING BACK SOME DAY

BACK ACROSS THE WATER WHERE I LONG TO BE

SCOTLAND FOREVER IN MY HEART

YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A PART OF ME

2ND VERSE:

AFTER WE SET SAIL MY DADDY FELL ILL

WITHIN ONE WEEK HE DIED

LEAVING ME WITH NOBODY

JUST A BROKEN HEART INSIDE

I REMEMBER THEN THE CAPTAIN SAYIN

YA GOTTA FACE IT LIKE A MAN

LIFE DON’T LAST FOEVER SON

YA GOTTA LIVE IT WHILE YOU CAN

CHORUS:

SCOTLAND I’M COMING BACK SOME DAY———

3RD VERSE:

NOW I’M GROWING OLD MY STORIES TOLD

IT’S ALL A MEMORY

STILL I HEAR MY MOTHER CALLING

FAR ACROSS THE SEA

I’VE HAD MY LIFE AND LIVED IT WELL

I’VE MADE A LOTTA FRIENDS

BUT I KNOW WHERE I’M GOING TO

WHEN MY LIFETIME ENDS

CHORUS:

SCOTLAND I’M COMING BACK SOME DAY———–
