lyrics
Scotland's heart
1.
Scottish folk are known worldwide
Finer souls, you will not find,
Good-humoured, friendly, kind and true,
The salt of this good earth.
2.
Great inventions, come to mind,
Creating wonders, of our time,
Steam-engines, phones and your TV,
That’s just, to name a few.
Bridge:
Scotland’s heart thumps like a drum, leading a marching song
Her people always striving, to build the nation strong
Stalwart and good-natured folk, the legends still are told
Of the strong and hardy spirit, within the Scottish soul.
Chorus.
The saltire, flies for you
Our cross of white on blue,
Remember when its flown,
Scotland - is your home.
3.
Home of Robert Burns, the bard,
He’s celebrated near and far
With songs of love, and passion deep,
The poet king, our star.
4.
Whisky gives the world a glow,
From the lands of mist, it flows,
Around the world it brings good cheer
And warms the heart and soul
Bridge + chorus x 2
