O' you go the high road an' I'll take the low road, |
| an' I'll be in Scotland before ye |
| for me and my true love we'll never walk again |
| on the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. |
You'll take the acid an' I'll take the dope |
| an' I'll be stoned before ye |
| for me an' my true love, the drink waters' well (the drug squad as well?) |
| on the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. |
Step we gaily on we go |
| Heel for heel and toe for toe |
| Arm in arm [an' row an' row |
| All for Mhairi's wedding] |
I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll take the low road |
On the lead guitar, from Yorkshire, Mr. Steven Rothery! |
I said you, you, you, you take the high road |
| I said I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll take the low road |
On the bass guitar, the backing vocal, from Aylesbury, Mr. Peter Trewavas! |
I said you, you, you, you'll take the high road |
| I said I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll take the low road |
On the keyboads, from Dublin, Mr. Mark Kelly! |
I said you, you--, you'll take the high road |
| I said I'll, I'll--, I'll take the low road |
On drums, percussion, Mr. Michael - E.T. - Pointer |
And a very big round of applause for yourself, |
| our audience tonight. It takes two! |
On vocals, and percussion, Fish! |
A dream fulfilled! |
Sweet Ma- Ma- Ma- Ma- Margaret (4x) |
