lyrics

NESSIE OF THE LOCH

Are you the last of your kind this water to roam
How long have you been here
‘Tis many a name by which you’re known
A legend through countless years.

The Waterhorse, Kelpie, Wurm or Beast
Your existence many still mock
But the name from children still serves you best
They call you Nessie of the Loch.

Are you the last living member of an ancient line
Or do your brothers still flourish
Swimming in secret against the tides of time
With young ones to teach and to nourish

The Pict, the Viking, the wild Highland Gael
Knew the Lochs in which you hide
As long as you remain and your stories men tell
Then Scotland will surely abide
They call you Nessie of the Loch
