Hello All!
I'm looking for a midi file or sheet music for The Green Oak Tree. I know the tune, but have not been able to transcribe it onto paper. The lyrics for the song I'm looking for are below, it's a song about Greenock, Scotland.
Actually, if anyone has any other info about this song, I'd be interested in hearing it.
Thanks,
Snoozer

Chorus
Here's to the Green Oak that grew down by the square;
Here's to its roots that are still slumbering there;
Here's to the townsmen whaure're they may be;
I'm proud that I'm a branch o' the Green Oak Tree.

I'll sing about a wee toon that stands upon the Clyde,
It is the toon whaur I was born, it fills my heart with pride.
My mither often telt me as she crooned me on her knee,
That Greenock took its name frae the Green Oak Tree.

May Greenock like the Green Oak Tree still flourish 'neath the sun,
Her trade and commerce still increase for a thousands years to come.
And may each son o' Greenock as he battles thro' life's storm,
Be honest, true, and ne'er disgrace the toon whaur he was born.

Noo Greenock's no' a bonny toon I've heard some folk complain,
And ithers say when they go there, they nothing see but rain!
But let them say whate'er they may, wi' them I'll no agree,
For aye the name o' Greenock toon shall still be dear to me.
