Lyrics
I've seen lots of bonnie lassies on my travels wide,
But my heart is centred noo on bonnie Kate McBride,
Although I'm not a fella that would throw a word away,
I surprise myself sometimes at all I've got to say,
Roamin' in the gloamin' by the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest,
That's the time that we love best,
Oh, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest,
That's the time that we love best,
Oh, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
One night in the gloamin' we were sitting side by side,
I kissed her quick 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' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest,
That's the time that we love best,
Oh, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest,
That's the time that we love best,
Oh, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
Last night efter strollin' we got in at half-past nine,
And sittin' at the kitchen fire I asked her to be mine,
When she promised I got doon and danced the Heeland Fling,
I've just been to the jewellers,
And I bought her a bonnie wee ring,
Roamin' in the gloamin' by the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest,
That's the time that we love best,
Oh, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest,
That's the time that we love best,
Oh, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
Oh, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'.
