Biography:
Matt McGinn era uno de los canautores más importante de la musica folk de los años 1960s y 1970s. Nacido al lado de el famoso mercadillo "The Barras" en Glasgow, Escocia en 1928, la vida de Matt hubiera seguido los pasos tipicos de muchos chicos pobres de su tiempo; robos y crimenes de poca monta, si no fuera que, despues de ser internado durante dos años por robar, un amigo le presentó al mundo de la politica de la izquierda, y la vida de Matt cambió.

Am Em C
The Mary and the Lizzie they were made right here
Am Em Am
But you'll never see the likes of them I fear
Am Em C
They were the finest on the silver sea
Am Em Am
They were built by the hands of men like me
Chorus
Thank you, Dad, for all your skill
But the Clyde is a river that'll no stand still
You did gey well, but we'll do more
Make way for the finest of them all, Q4
We have an order we'll fulfil
With a touch o' the master and a bit more skill
Now the backroom boys are under way
And the pens will be rolling till the launching day
There's Tam O'Hara with his burning gear
The plumber and the plater and the engineer
There's young Willie Wylie with his welding rod
They're waiting at the ready for the backroom nod
We'll burn and cut and shape and bend
We'll be welding and riveting and in the end
When the painter's dabbed his final coat
We'll be launching the finest ever ship afloat
We've worked and sweated and toiled and now
See the expert's hand from stern to bow
She's ready for the torments o' the sea
She's a credit to the Clyde and me
