The Dundee Ghost

[Evil Laughter}

[Verse]
Now a deid man seldom walks
He very rarely talks
It's no' very often you'll find him runnin' aroond
But I am a refugee
Frae a graveyard in Dundee
And I've come tae haunt some hooses in Glesga toon
[Evil Laughter]
I've come tae haunt some hooses in Glesga toon

[Verse]
The reason I arose
Was tae get masel' some clothes
For it really gets hell of a cauld below the grun
But I whispered tae masel'
"Ach, I think I might as well
Hing aroond for a while and haе some fun
[Evil Laughter]
Hing aroond for a while and hae somе fun."

[Verse]
A man put oot his light
On a cold and wintery night
I showed him one of my eyes and slapped his heid
He says "Oh!" and I says "Boo!"
He says "Who the hell are you?"
I said "Don't be feart, I'm only a man that's deid
[Evil Laughter]
"Don't be feart I'm only a man that's deid."

[Verse]
Now the fella knelt and prayed
And this was what he said:
"Why in the name of God have you picked on me?"
So I pulled away his rug
And I skelpt him one on the lug
"The reason," says I, "I'll very soon let you see"
[Evil Laughter]
"The reason," says I, "I'll very soon let you see"

[Verse]
When he brought the polis in
I battered him one on the chin
The polis turned aroond and he blamed my friend
He marched him to the jail
He'll be in there quite a while
But I'll see naebody takes his single end
[Evil Laughter]
I'll see naebody takes his single end

[Verse}
Now the polis thought him daft
And a lot of people laughed
When the fella said a ghost was in his house
But what the fella said was true
And I might be visitin' you
So just remember I'm still on the loose
[Evil Laughter]
Just remember I'm still on the loose
