Anne Neilson Origins: old Scots song, Auchenshuggal, Nessie (8) RE: Origins: old Scots song, Auchenshuggal, Nessie 18 Sep 12


Oh, the romance of a name!
I woke up this morning with a song running through my head -- popular in Glasgow folk clubs in the 60's, it was a parody of the pop song "Last Train to San Fernando".

'Last tram tae Auchenshuggle,
Last tram tae Auchenshuggle --
If you miss this one, there'll never be another one!
Bee dee bee dee bom bom -- tae Auchenshuggle.'

(Apologies for being so unhelpful, but if you wake up with a smile on your face, it's surely worth sharing....)
