When I wade across the Jordan I'll be shining For I know the one I love is over there From the straight and narrow path I've often wandered But every time he puts me back on course Guide me then to where the fields of lambs are bleating Where the tiger soothes the baby kangaroo Where the Transit full of Keith In the sidestreets has no beef With Elgin, Nairn or Brora anymore
