Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen
Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen | |
| When I was a child, a tiny wee child, My mother said to me, Come see the Northern lights my child, They're bright as they can be. She called them the heavenly dancers, Merry dancers in the sky I'll never forget that wonderful sight, They made the heavens bright. Chorus: Oh the Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen Seem home sweet home to me. The Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen Are what I long to see I've been a wand'rer all of my life And many's a sight I've seen Godspeed the day, When I'm on my way To my home in Aberdeen. |
2. I've wandered in many far off lands, Traveled many a mile I've missed the folk I've cherished most, The joy of a friendly smile It warms up the heart of the wand'rer, The clasp of a welcoming hand To greet me when I return, Home to my own native land. Chorus: |
