|
I have funds tae buy me whiskey |
|
Monie funds tae call my ain |
|
But if I should get to fu' o' water |
|
Wha's the man that would carry me hame? |
|
CHORUS: And if |
|
I be dround in the |
|
Isla Waters |
|
Hou the deuce would |
|
I win Hame? |
|
If I be drounk in the |
|
Isla Waters |
|
My wee doggie would find me in the |
|
Isla stream. |
|
Ilka day I cross that water |
|
Aye she's brackent wi' the sea |
|
But if there is o' ale-hous laughter |
|
Daurk an' still she waits on me. |
|
CHORUS Like the fisher's line that's brawken |
|
Leaves the salmon tae the swell |
|
Monie's the nicht ye'll fan' me souken |
|
But ye brak the line yersel. |
|
CHORUS Aa' my days |
|
I've lived the quarter |
|
Baud and bonnie fine stuff |
|
I've seen |
|
But should |
|
I droun in your water |
|
My wee doggie would find me in the |
|
Isla Stream. |
