Oh I was born in Glasgow, near the centre of the town, I would take you there and show you, but they've pulled the building down. And when I think about it, it always makes me frown, They bulldozed it all to make a road. And that great old place I miss so much has seen much better days, And still we talk about it as we go our separate ways. Oh, but Glasgow gave me more than it ever took away, And prepared me for life on the road. My granny was a cleaner, my grandad drove a tram, My father an engineer, made me all I am. They have seen the city come and go, still they give a damn, There's so much to learn along the road. And Glasgow gave me more than it ever took away, And prepared me for life on the road.
Always get a lump in my throat listening to this, reminds me of my Granny, we would sit together and watch the world tour of Scotland . We both liked Billy 's programme it was the highlight of our week. Thanks for uploading 😔👍🏻

Thank you for uploading these. I've been looking for them since 1995
You're welcome
I had the double dvd of Billy's Last world tour of Scotland and it was stolen. I'm in South Africa and I can't find it anywhere here :'(
Are you from Glasgow yourself?
The song is beautiful and I cannot find it on Spotify....
Could I buy you a pint of heavy if I come to Glasgow?
Hahaha. That will be difficult because I'm not even scottish. I'm from Spain.
