Nessie

Away up in Scotland is the place that's best

Is a Scottish fjord that they call Loch Ness

The loch is so deep there ain't nobody know

And deep within the loch is a bonnie bonnie creature

A long time ago there was a people who knew

The water and the land and all life is sacred.

Everybody treated Nessie with respect

Nobody bothered her swimming in the sea so,

Swim round so proud and beautiful.

Yeah she squiggled and she squoggled

And she frolicked in the sunshine

She swam into another serpent and they fell in love

With the ocean and the highlands and the stars up above

Why go away there were no reasons

Time rolled on about 10,000 years

The ancient people of the loch began to disappear

Some were wiped out, some moved away

Who could tell that the end was near so,

Go now, get down, and swim away

But don't you forget to return on a sunny day

Come on, come on, oh Nessie come on

Come on, come on, Loch Ness is where you belong

So come on, oh Nessie come on, Loch Ness is where you belong.

Now the people of the world look down in Loch Ness

And they noticed something big and bumpy swimming all around

And the newspapers said, "she couldn't be found"

So they got the radiomen and the television crew

Run Nessie run they're all after you

Now they've got the helicopters and submarines too

If you let them capture you I know what they'll do

We'll have to pay to see you in an underwater zoo, No!

Go now, get down, and swim away

But don't you forget to return on a sunny day

Come on, come on, oh Nessie come on

Come on, come on, Loch Ness is where you belong

So come on, oh Nessie come on, Loch Ness is where you belong.
