Blue Bells of Broadway Lyrics
The Blue Bells Of Broadway (Are Ringing Tonight) - Doris Day
The bagpipes of Scotland are hushed in the glen
For Sandy mactavish will nae come home again
He's far from the bluebells that once bloomed so bright
But the blue bells of Broadway are ringing tonight
He sits on the bandstand with knees that are bare
The cats crowd around him and hoot mom how they stare
For Sandy in kilts is a braw bonny sight
And the blue bells of Broadway are ringing tonight
He plays a boogie woogie bagpipe
So cool it's bound to hurt
Each nervous fan yells
Dig that man in the crazy red skirt
The banks of loch lomond are lonely today
For Sandy mactavish three thousand miles away
He's far from the heather that once bloomed so bright
But the blue bells of Broadway are ringing tonight
Oh where tell me where has my hi eland laddie gone
Oh where tell me where has my hi eland laddie gone
He's gone to join a jazz band on fifty second street
And it's there you can hear him introduce that bagpipe beat
He wears a real gone tam o' shanter and tassels on his socks
And when he blows the rhythm grows' til the joint really rocks
He squeezes the goatskin and out comes the jive
For Sandy's the hit of the dipsy doodle five
Since he's blowin' with' em the rhythm is right
And the blue bells of Broadway are ringin'
The blue bells are ringin' with the bagpipe beat
On Broadway on Broadway tonight
