Aunty Betty 

Aunty Betty laid to rest 
Aunty Betty always made me feel the best 
Aunty Betty always made me feel the best  

The granite stairs on the tenemant 
Cascading tears of sentiment 
Fae Oran Street and Orange walks the orange street lights and the winter duvet coats 

52 bus fae Oran Street  up the bilsland drive and possillpark to Kelvinside
Buchannan st.. Botanic gardens..the childhood ghosts that I may have startled 
ma Grandma flitting fae Broadholm st
Milngavie and Bearsden was always a distant treat
Bishopbriggs and Lomond Drive Kirkintilloch wired right into my hard drive 

Maryhill and Shakespeare st pitchpark games on Sandah st
Donald Ruby Irish born 
We heard the drama with the drink unfurled 
Of endless tales and gossip greets 
A tale fae all the Glesca Streets 

My story started here in 65 and resonates while im here and im still alive 
In the kitchenette with mince and tatties looking out the windae and all the stories unfurling 

Childhood memories not distant ghosts they are carrying on making me feel 
So here I am years from then but im still here  still thinking of then so Aunty betty your butter was best Aunty betty you were the best

Aunty Betty I wont forget ya 
Aunty Betty I wont forget ya 
Aunty Betty I wont forget ya 
Aunty Betty I wont forget ya
