Listen to the song here
if it doesn't play automatically
The song will play in a new window allowing you to follow the words
as you listen to the song.
Sung by Will Fyffe
For 30 years I've held
the licence of this wee hotel
The fact is Ah was born in it an' reared
in it as well
It's been handed down for years an' years from father on to son
An' it's recognised the house of call by
each an' ev'ryone
An' I'm the landlord of the pub in
Aberfoyle
An' if
you're feeling thirsty from a hard day's toil
You'll find that this is jist the place
for whisky an' for beer
You'll find a Scottish welcome ...ay an'
herty Scottish beer
If it happens that the doors are closed
an' the clocks have all struck ten
Jist tap upon the back-door, dinnae ring
the bell
An'
down will come the landlord of the Aberfoyle Hotel
Ah'll be there mind ye
We get lots of folks
fae Glesgae on a Sunday afternoon
Motor bikes an' hikers by the dizzen
gaither roon
Ah
fill them up wi' haggis, ay an' lots of biled ham
For it makes them awfae thirsty so they
hiv tae hiv a dram
An' I'm the landlord
of the pub in Aberfoyle
An' if you're feeling thirsty from a hard
day's toil
You'll find that this is jist the place for whisky an' for beer
You'll get a Scottish welcome ...ay an'
herty Scottish beer
If it happens thit the doors are closed
and the clocks have all struck ten
Jist tap upon the back-door, dinnae ring
the bell
An'
down will come the landlord of the Aberfoyle Hotel
