How good that made us feel,
For weel he kens the ways o’ Blue Badge Guide-ios
Chorus For – each year there’s CPD Which informs to a degree,
And usually involves some reversing-o. We get there in the end,
With John going round the bend,
Arriving at our programmed destination-o
1 None of us was loath
Tae gang up tae Arbroath,
The home of the famous Declaration-o.
Where in April ’51,
With their daring deed all done,
Some Glesgae students left the Stone of Scone-io.
2 Would you like your bitties rubbed? Or with bristly brushes scrubbed?
Before producing milk by the bucket-o? Mackie’s coos just chomp all day
On whisky-flavoured hay.
Lucky beasts! They lead the life of Riley-o.
Chorus
3 Next we got embroiled
In the black black North Sea Oil.
Pam was a WELL of information-o
She took us round the city
But omitting little Footdee (pronounced Fitty) While telling well-oiled stories by the barrel-o.
4 By bonnie Ythanside To Fyvie we did ride
To see the cursed castle with the ghosties-o.
Where first sons always die,
And the dwarf goes in a pie
While the starving wife is scratching at the windae-o.
Chorus
5 We’ve had 5 star tourist guides (Malcolm Milne & Pam Wells) And plenty more besides
