Original lyrics

EN

I hail from the flatlands of East Anglia A town that once could boast prosperity She had trekked for many moons from a land afar But the cruel nets had emptied the northen sea And she said "hoots, I cannae get back tae me hoos in bonny Scotland" Girl with the hazel eyes - Aaaaah! Girl with the hazel eyes - Aaaaah! The elements had taken their toll on her Her face was weather beaten and her hair greasy I had never seen a set of eyes more hazelerer And a tear did fall as she looked up at me And she said "hoots, I cannae get back tae me hoos in bonny Scotland" Girl with the hazel eyes - Aaaaah! Girl with the hazel eyes - Aaaaah! I shall travel with thee For to see your folks in Scotland With their blessing, on one knee I shall ask for your left hand Girl with the hazel eyes - Aaaaah! [x4] I shall travel with thee For to see your folks in Scotland With their blessing, on one knee I shall ask for your left hand
