A job, a shop, a community
No tricks, no Proto-Leaders
A rich life to feed us
A school, a home, a humanist
In every head, a Good Citizens Guide
Arise the ghosts of Govan Drive

Thangs and all kinds of everything
There's enough to go around
Emigrants think twice before you go
Help the needy unlock the door
Pass a little parcel of freedom
A Vale smile arms wide open

Dream Bastions of Sandstone Red
Summon Spirits of Good Neigbours Dead
Jack Tamson's Bairns one and all
They are still alive from near and far
Lock arms together everyone inside
with our comrades of The Govan Drive

Beware the Brave New World
Mark Groupthink as a Delta Minus
The truth is out there in an instinct
Never sleepwalk simple always complex
Hold hands together in a secular seance
Harness the ghosts of Govan Drive

Blinded by the nonchalant rise
of greedy merchants of the Right
The con men of a common sense
Your local new age Uncle Mosley
Stop the landlords of tomorrows night
Remember the ghosts of Govan Drive
