The Ailsa Craig

[Cedric Farthsbottom III]

Yon big bit o rock oot in the sea
I've looked at ye for years
I've seen ye so many times
It disnae bring me ony cheers

But Paddys Milestone ye crone oot to ma heart
Cos there was a photie aw ye in the paper
But I know when I visit ma very own kin
I'll see ye sooner rather than later

For ye see things in life day every day
They look to us so boring
But its in oor dreams we miss them most
When yer fast asleep and snoring

So ma dear Ailsa Craig fae Caithness to ye
Wi yer seagulls in yer porries
Cos ye seagulls arenae seagulls here
Yer better known as scorries
