[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
My best friend was at his wits' end
His outlook was rather grey
So, I took him for a walk and a little pep talk
Down over Dumbarton Way
[Chorus]
Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge
[Post-Chorus]
Well, there's mice and there's minx
And the place always stinks
Because they don't haul the bodies away
From under the Overtoun Bridge
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
His dog Spot was drinking quite a lot
His outlook was rather blue
So, we went for a turn down the Overtoun Burn
And took along a dram or two
[Chorus]
Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge
[Post-Chorus]
Well, there's mice and there's minx
And the place always stinks
Because they don't haul the bodies away
From under the Overtoun Bridge
[Verse 3]
During clear weather on the Overtoun Bridge
Light as a feather the dogs do wish
To fly like a demon, like a bat out of hell
During clear weather they never cross well
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 1]
My best friend was at his wits' end
His outlook was rather grey
So, I took him for a walk and a little pep talk
Down over Dumbarton Way
[Chorus]
Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge
Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge
[Post-Chorus]
Well, there's mice and there's minx
And the place always stinks
Because they don't haul the bodies away
From under the Overtoun Bridge
[Instrumental Outro]
