THE SINGALONG ... GAME 1

SCOTLAND

Verse 1:

O flower of Scotland
When will we see your like again
That fought and died for
Your wee bit hill and glen
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Verse 2:

The hills are bare now
And autumn leaves lie thick and still
O'er land that is lost now
Which those so dearly held
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again

Verse 3:

Those days are passed now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be the nation again
That stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again


Only Verses 1 and 3 are sung at games



I don't think we have any GR Rugby Union Fans among us (unless you tell us differently of course!)
