?????

Could we have a translation and lyrics please? They seem to be singing in Scottish about Miami, Canada and a train, but after that I'm lost.

Yes, yes, I know Scottish is some sort of English, but I've a friend in the Boulder County Sheriff's Office who is town marshal for the town of Nederland, and a Highlander from the far boonies. When Jim gets his dander up nobody can understand a word he's saying.

Just like to know what they're singing...

When you go will you send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada.

Well
broke ofF from my work the other day

I spent the evening thinking
about all the blood that flowed away.
Across the ocean to the second chance

I wonder how it go on when it reached the promised land.

When you go will send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada.

I've looked at the ocean
tried hard to imagine
The way you felt the day you sailed
from Wester Ross to Nova Scotia.
We should have held you
we should have told you

But you know our sense of timing
we always wait too long.

When you go will you send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada.

Lochaber no morg
Sutherland no more

Lewis no more
Skye no more!

I wonder my blood
will you ever return
To help us kick the life back to a dying mutual friend?
Do we not love her
I think we all tell you about

Do we have to roam the world to prove how much it hurts?

When you go will you send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the railtrack from Miami to Canada.

Bathgate no more
Linwood no more

Methil no more

Ah. Thank you.

Now follow it up with the Royal Scots Dragoon Guard's "Mull of Kintyre" and you'll have us all misty eyed before you know it. And me a hard hearted old Dutch-Irish Jew. I've been married to a MacTaggart for thirty years and her Sottishness is contagious. My boys and I even own kilts.

Of course you know our children should by rights be the stingiest people on Earth.

Sir, may I extend an olive branch across the pond?

The Old Course is on my bucket list and I'd like to buy you a cuppa...
