THE ROLLING HILLS 0' THE BORDERS (McGinn, Arr. Scocha)

When I die bury me low

Where I can hear the bonnie Tweed flow

A sweeter place I never did know  

Than the rolling hills o' the Borders

I have travelled far and wide  

I've seen the Hudson, aye and the Clyde 

I've couned by Lochlomond side  

But I dearly love the Borders

Ah but I can mind the day 

When with my lass, I strolled by theTay

Ah but her beauty just fades away  

Amang the hills o' the Borders

There's a certain peace of mind 

Bonnie lassies there you'll find  

The men they're hard but yet sae kind

Amang the hills o' the Borders
