SCOTTIE THE DOG In the bleak winter 2010 And the snow kept falling down I got down to the shops to fill my pantry up When I came out of the shop I couldn't believe what I saw A lovely white Scottie dog wearing a lovely red kilt The pleats in it were perfect oh how I laughed He had on a nice black jacket with epaulettes on the shoulder, With shiny brass buttons too I smiled all the way at what I had seen I told all the ladies where I lived but just laughed And wouldn't believe me I told the lady who owned the dog She took a photo of him and gave it to me Which was very nice He would be perfect walking with the band When the pipes begin to play He would stick his chest out and wag his tail Because he was Scottish and proud of it too L PRICKETT, Dunston.
