Subject: CRD: From here to there (Battlefield!)
Hi!
Though nobody requested it, here is a _new_ song of the Scottish
Battlefield-Band. The guitar-player Alistair Russell told me the
chord on their last concert in Germany last week.
Contact me if you have some other Battlefield-Songs or Brian McNeill-Songs
or if you want some more (out of the song-book)
Bye
Dorthe (luebbdbi@rubb.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de)
From Barra down to Biscay and from Shetland to Mayo
It's miles and miles of rocky road whichever way you go
But a tune so sweet with a driving beat will follow you around
As the western shores unite to make that wild and joyful sound
A sound that will get you on your feet
No matter where you roam
Wherever you hear that sound so sweet
You can call that place your home
These are rare old times around the world from the west unto the east
Should we laugh or should we cry and will we live in peace
Back home the change is slow to come as we wait for the dawning light
So it's up the pipes and beat the drums to see us through the night
We've travelled far and wandered wide Alaska to Hong Kong
And a welcome waits for all who hear and can't be sad for long
It's a cold hard heart that can't resist this music and this song
In a mighty crowd of dancing feet that's where we all
belong
