Lyrics

My best friend was at his wits' end
His outlook was rather grey
So, I took him for a walk and a little pep talk
Down over Dumberton Way

Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge

Well, there's mice and there's minx
And the place always stinks
Because they don't haul the bodies away
From under the Overtoun Bridge

His dog Spot was drinking quite a lot
His outlook was rather blue
So, we went for a turn down the Overtoun Burn
And took along a dram or two

Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge

Well, there's mice and there's minx
And the place always stinks
Because they don't haul the bodies away
From under the Overtoun Bridge

During clear weather on the Overtoun Bridge
Light as a feather the dogs do wish
To fly like a demon, like a bat out of hell
During clear weather they never cross well

My best friend was at his wits' end
His outlook was rather grey
So, I took him for a walk and a little pep talk
Down over Dumberton Way

Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge
Over, over, Overtoun Bridge
Rover went over, over the Overtoun Bridge

Well, there's mice and there's minx
And the place always stinks
Because they don't haul the bodies away
From under the Overtoun Bridge
