I found the LP and agree it is hard to decipher, but here is my best guess....... There is a wedding in a wee kirk to the side of Glasgow Green Between a lassie and a soldier home on leave There are Roses and Carnations and Lilies for the bride And her father's got a shotgun up her sleeve And her faither's standin ragin, for the bridegroom's turned up late Paraplegic and no button on his fly With some screw taps and lanlic and a Pakistani mate And they brought a couple of birds along fore by And her mother is sitin greetin but it is nae from the heart For her daughter is not really such a rose. Its not emotion that has moved her but mascara in her eye and her corset is caught up in her drawers. Do take this women to be your lawful wedded life To keep her to death and bitter end Awe for god sake get a move on and get this bloody 'ower And I'll maybe get a pint before the game After, in the evening, after lots of drunken fights To Barlinine the unconscious groom did go While the wife went out on her honeymoon To the labour ward up in Rottenrow.
