Away up in Scotland is the place that's best Is a Scottish fjord that they call Loch Ness The loch is so deep there ain't nobody know And deep within the loch is a bonnie bonnie creature A long time ago there was a people who knew The water and the land and all life is sacred. Everybody treated Nessie with respect Nobody bothered her swimming in the sea so, Go now, swim proud, and beautiful. Yeah she squiggled and she squoggled And she frolicked in the sunshine She swam into another serpent and they fell in love With the ocean and the highlands and the stars up above Why go away there were no reasons Time rolled on about 10,000 years The ancient people of the loch began to disappear Some were wiped out, some moved away Who could tell that the end was near so, Go now, get down, and swim away But don't you forget to return on a sunny day Come on, come on, oh Nessie come on Come on, come on, Loch Ness is where you belong So come on, oh Nessie come on, Loch Ness is where you belong. Now the people of the world look down in Loch Ness And they noticed something big and bumpy swimming all around And the newspapers said, "she couldn't be found" So they got the radiomen and the television crew Run Nessie run they're all after you Now they've got the helicopters and submarines too If you let them capture you I know what they'll do We'll have to pay to see you in an underwater zoo, No!
