[C#] [G#m]
[F#] [C#m]
[G#] My name's Duncan [C#] Campbell from the [G#] Shire, or Guy.
I've travelled this [C#] country for monies and [G#] night.
I've travelled [G#m] through [F#] Ireland, [C#m] Scotland and all.
And [G#] the name I [D#] go under's [C#] Golden Robber.
[G#]
One night's an old [C#] Ricky as I walked in [G#] the street.
A saucy big fool, [C#] that's a chance for [G#] two meet.
He glows in my face and he gives me some [C#]
joy.
Saying [G#] when can [D#] we [C#] overgo the [G#] hair and go bra?
Well I am not a part, [C#] though in Ireland [G#] I've been.
Nor am I a party, [C#] though Ireland [G#] I've seen.
But somebody a party, that's [C#] nothing at all.
For [E] there's many's a [D#] bold [C#] hero from hair and go bra.
[F#]
[C#m]
[G#m] [C#] [F#] [C#]
[G#m] [F#] [C#m]
Well [G#] I know you're [C#] a part, while I cut all [G#] your hair.
But you're turned to [C#] Scotsman as soon as [G#] you're here.
You left your [G#m] own [F#] country for [C#m] breaking the law.
And [G#] we're seizing [D#] all [C#] stragglers from hair and [G#] go bra.
And were I [C#] a part, and you knew it [G#] was true.
Or were I the devil, [C#] then what's [G#] that to you?
Were it not for the stick [G#m] that you hold [C#] in your paw.
Then [G#] I'd show [D#] you a game [C#] played in hair and go bra.
[G#m]
[C#] [G#m] [C#]
[G#] Then a lump of black thorn had to help him progress.
Around his big body I [C#] [G#] did a twist.
And the blood from his napper I quickly [C#] did draw.
And [G#] paid him [D#m] stock and interest [C#] for hair and go bra.
[G#m]
[D#m] [C#m]
[D#m] [C#] [G#] Then the people [C#] came around like a flock [G#] of wild geese.
Saying cad's a daft rascal, [C#] he's killed [G#m] the police.
And for every friend I had, I swear [C#m] he'd swore.
It [G#] was terrible [F#] hard [C#] times for hair and go bra.
But I [G#] came [C#] to you wee boat, that sailed within [G#] the foe.
And I packed up my gear [C#] and we sailed [G#] for the north.
Farewell to old Reekie, your [C#] poor little son's oar.
[G#] And the devil [D#] gangway [C#] he says there.
Go bra.
So [G#] come on ye young people, wherever you're from.
Don't give a damn [C#] to what place [G#] you belong.
I come from Argyll and Ealing, [C#] sub-raw.
But [Em] I'm near [F#] to Giselle being [D#] called [C#] there.
