The Rolling Hills O' The Borders     Credits: Matt McGinn     Appears On: Back Of The Moon     Language: Scots-English

Lyrics:

I've travelled far, I've wandered wide
Seen the Hudson and the Clyde
I've courted by Loch Lomand side
But I dearly lou the borders

Chorus:
When I die, bury me low
Where I can hear the bonnie Tweed flow
A sweeter place I'll never know
Than the rolling hills o' the borders

Well, dae I hae mind the day
Wae my lass I strolled by the Tay
But a' its beauty fades away
Amang the hills o' the borders

(Chorus)

There's a certain place o' mind
Bonnie lassies there you'll find
And men sae sturdy and yet sae kind
Amang the hills o' the borders

(Chorus 2x)
