[Verse 1]
GI've got a mate who's a shaman, gets anything you want in no Ctime
DA weekend at Bernie's is a Cfew days without any Gsunshine
GI know a right dour-faced bastard, a really nice guy but he hates Clife
he's got Dsarcastic eyeballs and a Ctongue that can slash like a Glock-knife
[Chorus]
EmThese faces I've known growing Cup on the streets in the Gsouthside
EmFrom the hills of the 'milk to the Cparade in the eaGstend
I remEmember the change in the Caccents on the wesGtside
EmMakin money till there's Cno time left to Gspend
it's aw Embullshit but we Caw still preteGnd
G           D
[Verse 2]
GWhen A was a wean I used to sell puff to make mConey
Dbut we'd smoke all the profit and by CFriday it was no longer Gfunny
GA know a guy who's a lightweight, one or two jars and he's bCuckelt,
He's the Dguy that loses keys has tae bCreak into his ain hoos and gets hGuckelt
[Chorus]
EmThese faces I've known growing Cup on the streets in the Gsouthside
EmFrom the swords in the schemes tae the CArt School dreams of the Gtoon
and when Ema lie awake in the nCight time these things I reGmember
EmSome happy, some sad, bring a Csmile tae ma face when am Gdoon
in the EmPriory or in SinbCad's in DunoonG  
G
[Verse 3]
Av been aDll round the world but there's Cnowhere compares tae ma Ghometown
EmThe mayhem eh Glesga is Cburied deep in ma bGlood
and tDhere's no other place where a cCunt might no be a put doGwn
EmIt's 13 degrees an there's Cfolk in the street in the Gscud
[Outro]
No the Embest place but there's dCiamonds in the muGd
No the Embest place but there's dCiamonds in the muGd
No the Embest place but there's diCamonds
