SIMPLE PLEASURES

FIT HAPPENED TAE THE CHILDHOOD DAYS

FIN BAIRNIES PLAYED ABOOT THE BRAES

THE SIMPLE THINGS FIN WE GIED OOT

A HANKIE AND STRING,  MADE A PARACHUTE

OORS ON END WERE SPENT IN JOY

WI' THIS SIMPLE HAME MADE TOY

HAULIN' SODJERS OOT O' THE GRUN

KNOCKIN' THE HEADS OFF WIS GREAT FUN

FLEEIN'  WIR KITES, MAKIN'  A CATTIES TAIL

THE ENJOYMENT NIVER SEEMED TAE FAIL

IT WIS ENDLESS DAYS O' FUN AND JOY

FIN I WAS JUST A LITTLE BOY

BUT A'  THESE THINGS ARE IN THE PAST

THEY TELT US THEN IT QUIDNA LAST

OOR GENERATION SEEMS TAE HAVE FAILED

GOLD HAS COVERED THESE CHILDHOOD TRAILS

NAE YOUNGSTERS NOO WI'  ROSY CHEEKS

IT'S COMPUTER LANGUAGE THEY NOO SPEAK

ALONG THE WYE WE 'VE  LET THEM DOON

MAYBE TOO MUCH O'  THE SILVER SPOON

FITNA WYE WE ALWAYS FAIL TAE SEE

JIST FIT A BAIRNIE WINTS TAE DEE

THEY 'RE HAPPIER PLAYIN' WI' SOMETHIN' SMA'

FIT IT COSTS THEY DIVNA CARE ATA'

THEY'RE HAPPIER PLAYIN'  WI THE BOX

AND TWIRLIN'  WITH THE COOKER CLOCK

SIT DOON WI' THEM AND READ A STORY

IN LATER YEARS YOU WINNA BE SORRY

MAKIN' FORTUNES SEEMS TAE BE OOR CREED

BUT TIME SPENT WI' THEM IS FIT THEY NEED.
