lyrics

On a day in 1964

On a day in 1964
The River Forth was spanned
You could walk frae Fife tae the Lothian
And never leave dry land

From miles around twas a sight to see
Everyone did all agree
You could drive yer car frae Edinburgh
Right up tae Kirkaldy

Imagine the wondrous sight
Of this bridge o’ dreams and hopes
Wi its towers high above the Forth
Supporting massive great wire ropes

Specs o’ people on the bridge
Workin’ night and by day
And the workforce that built that bridge
Worked for more than just pay
