Heorna Mhòr lyrics
by Peat and Diesel
[Intro]
Aye, the whammy bar was in my pocket
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Verse 1]
I'm having a fag on the back of the bus
And I'm homeward bound from a Carloway sesh
There's Bodachs and Cailleachs all over the place
And they're looking at me like I'm a disgrace
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Instrumental]
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Verse 2]
The bus, it stopped for one of my mates
It was Domhnall Glen, he was cutting the peats
He said to me, "Are you having a drink?
You better have it behind the seat."
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Instrumental]
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Verse 3]
We hit the brakes, we felt the bump
And then the driver, he jumped out
I said to Domhnall, "Well, what do you think?"
He said "Well an dhiol, we've hit a sheep."
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Instrumental]
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Verse 4]
We were fine, we'd had our beer
The Bodachs and Cailleachs were turning queer
We should have been back for half-past eight
We got chucked off in Assay Place
[Refrain]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Hioraidh Earaibh
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
Oh Heorna Mhòr, oh Heorna Mhòr
Oh Heorna Mhòr, Heorna Mhòr
Oh Hioraidh Earaibh
