Take Me Back

In the farthest of glen by a fair and golden strand

There I met a Highland laddie in the morning

And he sang me this song as he proudly marched along

Of a land of lochs and glens and silver sea

Take me back, take me back again where heather hills are high

And I'll hear a mavis singing in the morning

For there's no place on earth like the homeland of my birth

Oh my Scotland I am coming home to you

Well now there's wonders I have seen in the countries I have been

And there's beauty in the lands where I have wandered

But while I traveled free my heart kept calling me

To the land of lochs and glens and silver sea

Take me back, take me back again where heather hills are high

And I'll hear a mavis singing in the morning

For there's no place on earth like the homeland of my birth

Oh my Scotland I am coming home to you

I have stood on the shores where the great Pacific roars

From out yonder to down under I have wandered

And great cities I've walked in from Sydney to New York

But give me my lochs and glens and silver sea

Take me back, take me back again where heather hills are high

And I'll hear a mavis singing in the morning

For there's no place on earth like the homeland of my birth

Oh my Scotland I am coming home to you

Take me back, take me back again where heather hills are high

And I'll hear a mavis singing in the morning

For there's no place on earth like the homeland of my birth

Oh my Scotland I am coming home to you

Oh my Scotland I am coming home to you
