Doin Quite Alright Lyrics & Chords By Spirit Of The West

Well im' not goin anywhere to this land i am bound
I traveled in an aircraft once i much prefer the ground
looked on the rocky mountains theyre an awesome sight to see
I'd rather climb the Merrick or go fishin in the Cree

[vocal melody]
My name it is Jim Boyle and I live here all alone
In this council house me parents had but now it is me own
I have six brothers and sisters and they've all moved far away
but I'll be here in Galloway until my dying day.

Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong
Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong

I am a man who believes in livin off the earth
I grow all my own vegetables I'm careful for my health
I cut me hair and then me clothes I'm doin quite alright
And with 20/20 vision I can see no wife in sight.

Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong
Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong

I will not have a television it's of no interest to me
I read only factually books from the mobile library
I'll venture near no public house I'll nare be through those doors
the skies are clear you may find me on the ___?___ down the shore

Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong
Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong

Ah, this towns filled with strange faces and for them I have no trust
Some are wealthy English land owners much to my disgust
To see this land leave Scottish hands it fills me with despair
for now this land will be handed down unto a wrongful heir.

Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong
Scotland I love you my home, I'm doin no more travelin
Scotland I love you my home, It's here that I belong
