Description
'Pennan Brae' is a small village in Scotland where my grandfather is from. This song is a tribute to him.
Lyrics
He sailed from the Highlands South to Vera Cruz Deep in the Brazilian heartland A man of twenty-two Up the coastline North to Montreal Leather bag upon his frame Six foot one inch tall He lived the way I want to Freely without care Rode the western railway Wind rushing though his hair East to West coast to coast Where his best plans were laid Yonder cross those hills Where the spirit wills Where I chase my thrills Yonder cross those Got some land Worked it to the bone Met a true love There they made a home Had a family Three girls and no more Warm welcome awaited By his front porch unlocked door Moved the way I want to With a subtle grace Hand extended Warm smile on his face A life of peace and joy and love Is what true freedom seeks Wonder When we’ll walk again In a garden That you fondly tend Share the laughter Smell the cashmere As you press me Tight against my tears
