Listening to Lauder's 1925 recording of KROTTEOTR, I notice there are a few minor differences from the text on the rampantscotland.com site. Those may well be the words Lauder published, but these are the ones that he actually sings (differences are in bold).

KEEP RIGHT ON TO THE END OF THE ROAD
(Harry Lauder)

Ev'ry road through life is a long, long road,
Fill'd with joys and sorrows too,
As we journey on how your heart may yearn
For the things most dear to you.
With wealth and love 'tis so,
But onward we must go.

Chorus:
Keep right on to the end of the road,
Keep right on to the end,
Though the way be long, let your heart be strong,
Keep right on round the bend.
If you're tired and weary still journey on,
Till you come to your happy abode,
Where all you love and you're dreaming of
Will be there at the end of the road.

With a big stout heart to a long steep hill,
We may get there with a smile,
With a good kind thought and an end in view,
We can cut short many a mile.
So let courage ev'ry day
Be your guiding star alway.

Chorus

Incidentally, on the recording the songwritng credit is Lauder/Dillon. Did Dillon write the tune? Or did they do both together? Who was Dillon anyway?
