Bobby O'Brien Origins: Westering Home (Hugh Roberton) (112* d) RE: Lyrics? Westering home and a song in the air 09 Apr 97


Gee, good question! haha

It has appeared on Irish albums that didnot include other Scottish songs.

But then, the Irish stole "Loch Lomond" and changed it to "Red is the Rose", and we completely robbed the Scots of "Dark Island" (...In the years long ago when I first left my home...)

We're thieves who claim everything we sing as our own :-)
