This is off topic, but the lady who requests the words is almost 90 years old, so it's part of her heritage, obviously. She has had her chiming clock retuned, and one of the songs is "Oh, where, Oh, Where has my bonnie lad gone? ... He's gone to Bonnie Scotland...." I don't recall such words or song while growing up in Scotland, but then, I'm not nearly 90! Would it be "Oh, Where tell me where, has your Highland laddie gone? He's gone to ...." I don't remember the rest of the words, unfortunately...and I'm still not 90! Can any lister help, please. Maisie

If that doesn't work,just put the words of the first line into "GOOGLE" "Oh, Where tell me where, has your Highland laddie gone?
