Anyone know the 'unknown' word(s) in the last verse of Men of Worth? The DT version seems to be missing the correct words. The line seems to be : From (.... ... ..)shore a new industry is born...

I ken you're men of worth; you're the best that's in the north
Not men of greed, but men who need the work that's come your way
From Fluttock to Kishore a new industry is born
Now Peterhead and Cromarty will never be the same

Joe Offer came up with better lyrics than the database has in this thread.

I always sang, ... We'll pump it to the shore and an industry....

Mary Black is beautiful and sing devinely but she needs help with basic diction.

Peter F, you do mean "Flotta," don't you? I'll buy "Kishorn," and made the corrections in the final copy in the other thread (click). The "Fluttock" and "Kishore" came from Mary Black's flawed transcription. Jeri and I are, of course, perfect; but we wanted to transcribe the Mary Black version exactly...

I was going to the spring clean-up at the Mudcat and got a parking ticket when I stopped here to check on the responses to my question. I'm comforted that I'm not the only one having trouble understanding Mary Black. Thanks all!!
