The
Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen
When I
was a lad, a tiny wee lad
My mother said to me
Come see the lights, the wonderful lights
They' re such a sight to see.
They call them the heavenly dancers
Dancing in the sky
I'll ne'er forget, that wonderful sight
'Til the day I die.
Chorus
The Northern Lights of old Aberdeen
Are home sweet home to me
The Northern Lights of Aberdeen
Are what I long to see
I’ve been a wanderer all of my life
And many's the sight I've seen
God speed the day when I'm on my way
To my home in Aberdeen
Loving
Hannah
I went
to church on Sunday
My true love passed me by
I knew her mind was changing
By the roving of her eye
By the roving of her eye
The roving of her eye
I knew her mind was a changing
By the roving of her eye
Oh Hannah,
loving Hannah
Come give to me your hand
You said if you should marry
That I would be your man
That I would be your man
That I would be your man
You said if you should marry
That I would be your man
My love
is fair and proper
Her fingers long and small
And she is quite good looking
And that's the best of all
Aye that's the best of all
That's the best of all
And she is quite good looking
And that's the best of all
I'll go
down to the water
When everyone's asleep
I'll think on loving Hannah
And then sit down and weep
Then sit down and weep
Then sit down and weep
I'll think on loving Hannah
And then sit down and weep
