Here's a bit of it, transcribed from a sample at Allmusic.com


CARMICHAEL MILL
Robin Laing

...And over the caulks(?) spiders would creep
And the waterwheel stood still.
The slates and the gutters were broken and sad.
We live in a time of fashion and fad,
And we never knew the treasure we had
Lying at Carmichael Mill.

Down by the Clyde there's a bonnie place
Where stands Carmichael Mill....


[From Robin Laing's album "Imaginary Lines" (Greentrax CD 185, 1999).]
