         G      D                G
Oh ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair

      G      C                D
Ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair

        G                     C              G
Wi' yer bell-blue stride, yer bonnet tae the side

[Verse 1]
   G                               C               G
As ah went by the sweetie works ma heart began tae beat

C               G                                D
Watchin' a' the factory lassies walkin' doon the street

          G                        C            G
Wi' their flashy dashy petticoats, flashy dashy shawls

C                 G                  D             G
Five and a tanner gutty boots, We're a' wee gallus molls

Oh ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair

Ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair

        G                     C              G
Wi' yer bell-blue stride, yer bonnet tae the side

Ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair
[Verse 2]
     G                              C                 G
The Scots it is a noble tongue, the meaning's hard to tell

C                 G                   C            D
It's in aboot an' hey, nae doot, it's tapsalteerie all

    G                              C            G
But we are only doin' oor best, we try tae do it well

    C        G                    D             G
But whit the song is all aboot we dinnae ken oorsel'
[Outro Chorus]

Oh ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair

      G      C                D
Ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair

        G                     C              G
Wi' yer bell-blue stride, yer bonnet tae the side

      G      D                G
Ye're ma wee gallus bloke nae mair
