The record isn't that famous but it was a theme music from a popular radio broadcast. I can't figure out a title for this auction. The title of the album is (Don't laugh, I know I did) Roamin' in the Gloamin' it was used during the radio broadcast of The Scotch Gardener. How do I know this? It's written on the LP jacket. No one would know this record except someone from scotland but someone in the SF bay area might remember the Scotch Gardener. Any thoughts here?

Oi! NOW I've got a BIG headache!

"Lassie/Roamin' In The Gloamin'"

I love a lassie,
A bonnie, bonnie lassie,
She's as sweet as the heather in the dell,
She's as sweet as the heather,
The bonnie bloomin' heather,
Mary, my Scotch Bluebell.

Well, I love a lassie,
A bonnie, bonnie lassie,
She's as sweet as the heather in the dell,
She's as sweet as the heather,
The bonnie bloomin' heather,
Mary, my Scotch Bluebell.

So, I love a lassie,
A punk rock lassie,
She's as sweet as the heather in the dell,
She's as sweet as the heather,
The bonnie bloomin' heather,
Mary, my Scotch Bluebell.

Mary, my Scotch Bluebell ....

I roaming in the gloaming,
with a Bonnie near the Clyde.
Roaming in the gloaming,
with a lassie by my side.
‘Tis when the sun goes down,
that's the time that I like best.
Oh yeah, I'm roaming in the gloaming.

Roaming in the gloaming,
with a Bonnie near the Clyde.
Roaming in the gloaming,
with a lassie by my side.
‘Tis when the sun goes down,
that's the time that I like best.
Oh yeah, I'm roaming in the gloaming.

A famous song in the UK when I was young.
Roamin' In The Gloamin' (Original Recordings 1926-1930) - Sir Harry Lauder

Roamin' in the Gloamin'

I've seen lots of bonnie lassies travellin' far and wide,
But my heart is centred noo on bonnie Kate McBride;
And altho' I'm no a chap that throws a word away,
I'm surprised mysel' at times at a' I've got to say

Chorus:
Roamin' in the gloamin' on the bonnie banks o' Clyde,
Roamin' in the gloamin' wi' ma lassie by ma side,
When the sun has gone to rest, that's the time that I like best,
O, it's lovely roamin' in the gloamin'!

One nicht in the gloamin' we were trippin' side by side.
I kissed her twice, and asked her once if she would be my bride;
She was shy, and so was I, we were baith the same,
But I got brave and braver on the journey comin' hame.
Chorus:

Last nicht efter strollin' we got hame at half-past nine.
Sittin' at the kitchen fire I asked her to be mine.
When she promised I got up and danced the Hielan' Fling;
I've just been to the jewellers and I've picked a nice wee ring.
Chorus:

Meaning of unusual words:
gloamin'=twilight

I think "gloamin'" is a corruption of "glooming," so it makes sense for it to mean twilight.
