The Joyful Kilmarnock Blues

I'm not going to talk about doubts and confusion

On a night when i can see with my eyes shut

I'd never been to ayrshire

I hitched down one saturday

Sixty miles to kilmarnock

To see hibernian play

The day was bright and sunny

But the game i won't relay

And there was no kilmarnock bunnet

To make me want to stay



But i'm not going to talk about it

On a night when i can see with my eyes shut

When i started walking at wishaw

My eyes obscured my vision

After five miles on my way

I began to learn to listen



I walked through the country

I walked through the town

I held my head up

And i didn't look down

The question doesn't matter

The answer's always "aye"

The best view of all

Is where the land meets the sky.
