Verse 1
this is a much more serious song now.
It's a song about a First
World War hero,
who was not decorated
for the simple reason,
or for one very good reason,
that his heroism,
and it was real heroism in my opinion,
was displayed in his fight against
the First World War.
His name was John Maclean.
He was a Glasgow schoolteacher.
