Thread Name: ADD: When I Leave Old Glasgow Behind
Subject: RE: When I leave old Glasgow Behind--lyrics?
I asked around and got these verses - some of the same stuff is in here that is in the bits you already got. However, I think if you look at how the rhymes work, this pair of verses is more complete and the words are in the right order.
I'll keep asking around..
Hope it helps...

I'll leave ye Kelvingrove Park tae the winchers Sauchiehall street tae the clicks The red biddy drinkers can hae George's Square The fly men can aw wear their micks The coolies can hae paddy's market The barra's an aw I don't mind But I'll leave ye something for auld lang syne When I leave auld Glesga behind.
I'll leave ye Celtic park tae the Celtic At Ibrox the Rangers may dwell I'll leave ye a bookies tae lift aw yer lines I'll leave the noon record as well I'll leave ye a pub at each corner Where aw me young freends can drink wine But I'll leave ye something for auld lang syne When I leave auld Glesga behind.
