Description: Written about some of the bigotry that takes place in Central Scotland, where views and opinions are forcefully put across - although more often than not, it’s not from a well thought out political view but more a case of where and what religion you were born into.

lyrics

God bless my home, so far away.
Well I've got it in my blood boy, every new years day.
I've got my ma's eyes, got my da's faith.
March the days and the nights, are aw drunk away.

Well rise and shine, hear the drums far away.
Well you've got it in your blood boy, every new years day.
You've got your ma's eyes, got your da's faith.
March the days and the nights, are aw drunk away.
