By the clear and the winding stream
In the valley of Strathmore
Where my love and I have been
Where we'll wander never moreBut if time was a thing man could buy
All the money that I have in store
I would give for one day by her side
In the valley of StrathmoreFrom the glen of the golden and green
I left for a land far away
Where sadness has never been seen
And joy only costs a day's payBut if time was a thing man could buy
All the money that I have in store
I would give for one day by her side
In the valley of StrathmoreIf time was a thing man could buy
All the money that I have in store
I would give for one day by her side
In the valley of StrathmoreIn Strathmore, there's a long working day
For a man with his hands on the plow
But it's work, I'd be happy to do
If at night I were lying with youBut if time was a thing man could buy
All the money that I have in store
I would give for one day by her side
In the valley of StrathmoreAs I take a long draft from my glass
I'm drinking alone here again
And I try not to think of my lass
For the old days will ne'er come againBut if time was a thing man could buy
All the money that I have in store
I would give for one day by her side
In the valley of StrathmoreIf time was a thing man could buy
All the money that I have in store
I would give for one day by her side
In the valley of Strathmore
