R-emember the poet of Scotland, 
O-n the twenty-fifth of January;

R-emember the poet of Scotland who wrote in Scots language; 
T-he Ploughman poet did prove his deep and vast knowledge.

This is an interesting question
 born in city of Glasgow
 moved at 6 weeks to Ayrshire
 then 1990 to Renfrew I go

 So where is my home?
 being brought up in Ayrshire
 my formative years are there
 so memories are ever on fire

 Now based in Renfrew
 a small quiet town
 once home to a airport
 now no planes come down

 So Scotland is my nation
 born and brought up in this land
 here the covenanters braved the foe
 till death they did stand
