 AH’VE GOAT NAE MONEY
Bob McMillan
 
Ah’ve goat nae money left,
They took it aw away
Ma pension ah mean
Them doon London way
 
They said,”It’ll be fine,
“we a’ pay the same.
And when ye retire
Its there in yur name.”
 
Aye, fat chance oh that
It’s a’ frittered away
On hair brained ideas
An government pay
 
So whit dae ah dae,
tell me that Mr. Blair
Nae money fur heat
An winters sae sair
 
But your lot ur ok
Nae M.P.’s feelin cauld
Bit ah’ve goat nae money
Noo that am gitting auld.
