Only One Place Is Home

When you leave the country that you love
And you make another place home
How can you be happy when you roam
In a city that you never will call home

I'd rather be in Cowdenbeath than Cannock
With my ain folk that I ken sae well
I'd rather be in Dundee than in Dudley
The midlands aint a patch on my home
I rather see Carmunnock than Codsall
The warmest welcome on the globe

What craziness brings us to this land
Far from the blessed land of Caledonia
We came here with the one we loved
That would have been the only way

Lochgelly has appeal in a strange land
The Scottish welcome warm and true
Our land knows no equal on earth
The dear green place we come from
