Am Em C
The Mary and the Lizzie they were made right here
Am Em Am
But you'll never see the likes of them I fear
Am Em C
They were the finest on the silver sea
Am Em Am
They were built by the hands of men like me
Chorus
Thank you, Dad, for all your skill

But the Clyde is a river that'll no stand still

You did gey well, but we'll do more

Make way for the finest of them all, Q4

We have an order we'll fulfil

With a touch o' the master and a bit more skill

Now the backroom boys are under way

And the pens will be rolling till the launching day

There's Tam O'Hara with his burning gear

The plumber and the plater and the engineer

There's young Willie Wylie with his welding rod

They're waiting at the ready for the backroom nod

We'll burn and cut and shape and bend

We'll be welding and riveting and in the end

When the painter's dabbed his final coat

We'll be launching the finest ever ship afloat

We've worked and sweated and toiled and now

See the expert's hand from stern to bow

She's ready for the torments o' the sea

She's a credit to the Clyde and you and me
