John Nolan Lyr Req: Gala Water (from Battlefield Band etc.) (8) RE: Lyrics to Gala Waters 15 May 98


1. I grew up in the Borders, and sung this song (Galashiels), and others like Jethart's Here (Jedburgh), Queen o' a' the Border (Hawick) and James Hogg's Teribus ye Teri Odin (Hawick) at the annual common ridings.
2. Ewan MacColl printed this version in Folk Songs and Ballads of Scotland in 1965.
