lyrics

The auld lad sits down on his rocking chair
He said if he closes his eyes it takes him anywhere
He's flying high above this land of green
He said it's the most beautiful thing he has ever seen
That's my auld fella, the auld lad
That's my auld fella, the auld lad
Tell me the stories about when you were young
And how you never had much and still managed to have fun
And your father who worked every hour that god sent
Just to put food on the table and a roof over your head
That was your auld fella, the auld lad
That was your auld fella, the auld lad
I'm remembering day's when you were sometimes stuck at home
The country was on it's knee's and you were waiting by the phone
But there was also time's when you thought you were right and I know that, you were wrong
But that's ok now we're singing the same old song
That's my auld fella, the auld lad
That's my auld fella, the auld lad
Tell me the stories about when you were young
And how you never had much and still managed to have fun
And your father who worked every hour that god sent
Just to put food on the table and a roof over your head
That was your auld fella the auld lad
That was your auld fella the auld lad
That's my auld fella the auld lad
