ISLA WATERS I hae' friends, they buy me whisky Bonnie friends they call my name But if I should get too drunk for walkin' Where's the man that would carry me hame Chorus: And if I be drunk in the Isla Waters Through the Thistlewood I must hame If I be drunk in the Isla Waters My wee doggie would find me in the Isla Stream All the day I bless that water Aye she's bricht an' clear to see But after hours o' ale hoose laughter Dark an' still she waits for me Chorus Like the fishers line that's broken Leaves the salmon tae the swell Many's the nicht you've had me soakin' Part tae break the lyer's hell Chorus All my days I've lived tae court her Bauden bonny fine stuff I've seen But should I droun in yuir water My wee doggie would find me in the Isla Stream Chorus
