I Wish I was in Paisley
By Edmund Turnpike
I wish I was in Paisley
Where my heart used to roam
And when I am in Paisley
Why, Paisley is my home.
I'm going home to Paisley
Where all is a delight
I'm coming home to Paisley
That daughter of the night
Paisley Glen is the land that I love
Paisley Glen is divine
When Angels descend from up above
They dwell in Paisley for all time
The villagers of Paisley
Are colorful and free
The noblemen of Paisley
Act most chivalrously
And when I am in Paisley
That painted pleasure dome
I swear ne'er to leave Paisley
That corporeal poem.
Paisley Glen is the land that I love
Paisley Glen is divine
When Angels descend from up above
They dwell in Paisley for all time
Now when I'm old and dusty
My Paisley still shall be
Pavilions may get rusty
But Paisley lives in me
And so live long, O Paisley
Expand thy grand Empire
And never fade, O Paisley
Burn with Zoroastrian fire!
Paisley Glen is the land that I love
Paisley Glen is divine
When Angels descend from up above
They dwell in Paisley for all time
Paisley Glen is the land that I love
Paisley Glen is divine
When Angels descend from up above
They dwell in Paisley for all time
