The McCalmans - Lochs of The Tay lyrics

Artist: The McCalmans

album: The Greentrax Years


From Forfar the Dean Water drains the Vale of Strathmore
Doon the lazy loopin' Isla to the Tay by Meiklour
Now the Isla's early roamin' is in Highland no' in Lowland
Where the Ardle and Shee twine in Ericht's company
For the Lochs o' the Tay
Are the jewels in the crown of a Scone coronation
And the streams o' the Shire
Lock the county that's dearest tae me
Now the Garry disnae tarry in a melt-swollen spring
With the) Bruar, Tilt and Erochty leachin' Atholl's high grun'
From the moors o' lonely Rannoch trickles peat fae many dark loch
Through the Tummel's cleft braes by the Northern Highways
For the Lochs o' the Tay
Are the jewels in the crown of a Scone coronation
And the streams o' the Shire
Lock the county that's dearest tae me
Doon the Dochart and the Lochy, spillin' doon tae Loch Tay
Killin' tae Kenmore tae Aberfeldy, just a raft race away
Up the pools o' high Breadalbane, slip the sleek Lyon salmon
As they funnel their way atween Schiehallion and Tay
For the Lochs o' the Tay
Are the jewels in the crown of a Scone coronation
And the streams o' the Shire
Lock the county that's dearest tae me
As the Bran pours by Loch Freuchie, doon the braes tae Dunkeld
So the Almond hurries Sconeward, aye the Tay's eldest child
But the Earn will run her own way, giving way to Tay only
Ere she flows tae the tide, wi the Farg on her side
For the Lochs o' the Tay
Are the jewels in the crown of a Scone coronation
And the streams o' the Shire
Lock the county that's dearest tae me
For the Lochs o' the Tay
Are the jewels in the crown of a Scone coronation
And the streams o' the Shire
Lock the county that's dearest tae me
