GUEST,Jimmy Mac John Eaglesham - songs & info (31) Lyr Add: THE WILDS O' CROFTAMIE (John Eaglesham) 03 Jan 12


I remember my faither singing this song!

THE WILDS O' CROFTAMIE

Oh away in the wilds o'Croftamie
Where the white man fears to tread
There's an old log shack
And it stands well back
In the land o' the so called dead

If you peer through the muck on the windows
Or creep through the door with some stealth
You will find on a bunk
A wine sodden drunk
Who hikes for the good of his health

That's all I can remember lyrics wise and the tune was loosely based on the chorus of The Toreador's song from Carmen.
