LOCH LOMOND 7 (Neil McFadyen) It was on a summer's night, I got an awfie fright When I went for a swim in Loch Lomond Because when I cam' oot, ma clothes were nae aboot, For some passerby had pinched 'em in the gloamin'. And I couldnae tak the high road, I couldnae tak the low road As round and round I stumbled in the gloamin' I was sich an awfie sight when it cam' on braid daylight, I was carried hame in a blankie fae Loch Lomond. And another fright I got when I went oot in a boat On a fishin' expedition in Loch Lomond For I hooked an awfie weight, and I'm tellin' ye noo straight It took me from that night until next morning. For It wouldnae tak' the high road, it wouldnae tak' the low road That beast weighed ower a ton and I was foamin' What do ye think I seen, shining through twa eyes o' green, It was the Loch Ness Monster in Loch Lomond! So I went upon a spree at a local jubilee In a house on the banks of Loch Lomond But I practically got hung when they heared the song I sung And threw me oot on the banks o' Loch Lomond. For I couldnae hit the high notes, I couldnae hit the low notes The master o' the house, he was foamin' And I clean forgot the air when he hit me wi' a chair And flung me oot on the banks o' Loch Lomond! So I had a drink or twa, before I gaed awa' At a hotel on the banks o' Loch Lomond I was clean enjoyin' mysel' when they rang the closing bell And flung me oot on the banks o' Loch Lomond! For I couldnae see the high road, I couldnae see the low road As round and round I stumbled in the gloamin' Next mornin' wi' a druith, noo I'm tellin' ye the truth I drank a power o' water fae Loch Lomond!
