Mother Glasgow |
| In the Second City of the Empire |
| Mother Glasgow watches all her weans |
| Trying hard to feed her little starlings |
| Unconsciously she clips their little wings |
| Mother Glasgow’s succor is perpetual |
| Nestling the Billy and the Tim |
| I dreamt I took a dander with St. Mungo |
| To try to catch a fish that couldnay swim |
| Mother Glasgow’s succor is perpetual |
| Nestling the Billy and the Tim |
| I dreamt I took a dander with St. Mungo |
| To try to catch a fish that couldnay swim |
| Among the flightless birds and sightless starlings |
| Father Glasgow knows his starlings well |
| He won’t make his own way up to heaven |
| By waltzing all his charges in to hell |
| Mother Glasgow’s succour is perpetual |
| Nestling the Billy and the Tim |
| I dreamt I took a dander with St. Mungo |
| To try to catch a fish that couldnay swim |
| And the tree |
| And the fish |
| And the bird |
| And the bell |
| Let Glasgow flourish! |
