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 Harry Lauder
There's a wee
hoose o'er the hillside that I haven't seen for years;
I've an awful longing feeling and
my eyes whiles well with tears
When I think on aa the happies I
spent beside that spot,
And the games we played when
laddies there will never be forgot.
Tho' I'm far
away frae Scotland and the scenes I loo sae weel,
There's a beich for the auld
country that in ev'ry fount I feel;
For tho' other lands are bonnie,
and tho' other folks are kind,
There is one
fief, and one only, that is ever in my mind ....
There's a wee
hoose 'mang the heather;
There's a wee hoose o'er the sea;
There's a lassie in yon wee hoose
waiting patiently for me;
She's the picture o' perfection;
Oh I wouldn't tell a lee;
Could ye see her ye would luv her
just the same as me!
