lyrics

One time
Och aye
This one goes out to my girl Scotland

Listen up I've got something to say
Scotland don't leave me
Need one more chance before you walk away
Scotland don't leave me
Take a moment, hear me out
Scotland don't leave me
Let's be honest, let's have it out
Scotland don't leave me

We've been together since the thirteenth century
I'm really sorry that it started quite rape-ily
We had a trial separation devolution
Now you're making like that notion is a final solution
Our love is worth it, let's not let it spoil
Baby girl our love is worth more than North Sea oil
I'm saying lover, come on hear my call
I'm saying baby don't build another Hadrian's Wall

And you're not perfect, in fact it's quite the opposite
It's not been cheap paying for your drinking habit
You keep saying you spend more on me than I on you
But that's because you forget after all the booze
And I put up with all your deep-fat frying all my life
Sometimes I feel like I'm just your battered wife
I can't take this verbal abuse
You won't stop going on about Robert The Bruce

No I'm sorry, I went too far
Scotland don't leave me
No man's an island, but we are
Scotland don't leave me
You know I need you, need me too
Scotland don't leave me
Cause I can't bring up little Wales without you
Scotland don't leave me

We gotta reconcile don't wanna live in fear
Don't wanna be the next North and South Korea
And in Parliament we'll even up your numbers and
I don't mind if you wanna keep Northumberland
We dropped the ball and you got us worried
Have we still won Wimbledon if you take Andy Murray?
And we love Edinburgh festival, we're one of their acts
We can't afford foreign entertainers tax

So I'm sorry, you're my sweetheart
Scotland don't leave me
And I'll never stop watching reruns of Braveheart
Scotland don't leave me
Tell me you want me, just say it
Scotland don't leave me
And even though you didn't, we'll learn Gaelic
Alba na fàg mi
