Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde
Roamin' in the gloamin' wae my lassie by my side
When the sun has gone to rest that's the time that we love the best
Oh it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'
verse 1
I've seen lots o' bonnie lassies on my travels wide
But my heart is centred noo on bonnie Kate McBride
Altho' I'm noâ?? a fellow that would throw a word away
I'm surprised sometimes mysel' at a' I've got to say
Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde
Roamin' in the gloamin' wae my lassie by my side.
When the sun has gone to rest that's the time that we love the best
Oh it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'
verse 2
One nicht in the gloamin' we were trippin' side by side
I kissed her twice and I asked her once if she would be my bride
She was shy and so was I we were both the same
But I got brave and braver on the journey comin' hame
Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde
Roamin' in the gloamin' wae my lassie by my side.
When the sun has gone to rest that's the time that we love the best
Oh it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'
verse 3
Last nicht efter strollin' we got in at half past nine
And sitting at the kitchen fire I asked her to be mine
When she promised I got up and I danced the highland fling
I've just been to the jeweller's and I bought her a bonnie wee ring.
Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde
Roamin' in the gloamin' wae my lassie by my side.
When the sun has gone to rest that's the time that we love the best
Oh it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'
Oh it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'
