Lulu's Album

Far frae my hame I wander but still my thoughts return
 To my ain folk over yonder in the sheiling by the burn
 I see the cosy ingle and the mist upon the brae
 And joy and sadness mingle as I list some auld world lay 


 (Chorus)
 And it' oh but I'm longing for my ain folk
 Though they be but lowly pure and plain folk
 I am far beyond the sea but my heart will always be
 At home in dear old Scotland wi' my ain folk 


 A bonnie lassie's greetin' tho' she tries tae stay the tears
 And sweet will be our meeting after many weary years
 How my mother will caress me when I'm standing by her side
 Now she prays that heaven will bless me through the stormy seas divide 


 (Chorus)
