When Ah wis wee Glesca wis black
Canyons windin
Tramcaurs grindin
Chalk oan the was
Clickety cobblestanes
Rickety gallus weans cheeky
Noo Ah’m big, Glesca’s rid
Rubbit raw
Scrubbit braw
Brassy blonde hooses
Rid Squerr n jazz
Razzamataz.
Up oan the skyline
High-rise an pylons
Wind birlin stour dust
Roon the fowk faur ablow
Wide yawnin space
Wi nivver a trace
O the tramcaurs and canyons
We knew lang ago
