I notice that there is no attribution for this song in the Digital Tradition. I was written by Andy M. Stewart.

Here are the lyrics from the DT. Any corrections?

VALLEY OF STRATHMORE
(Andy M. Stewart)

By the clear and the winding streams
In the valley of Strathmore
Where my love and I have been
Where we'll wander never more

     But if time was a thing man could buy
     All the money that I have in store
     I would give for one day by her side
     In the valley of Strathmore

From the glen of the golden and green
I left for a land far away
Where sadness has never been seen
Aye, and joy only costs a day's pay

In Strathmore there's a long working day
For a man with his hands on the plow
But it's work I'd be happy to do
If at night I were lying with you

As I take a long draft from my glass
Oh, I'm drinking alone here again
And I try not to think of my lass
For the old days will ne'er come again

Strathmore, by the way, is just north of Dundee and not far from Forfar, the Bridie capital of the world...
