Jimi Shand and the Band!
Fin I was aff to leave the ploo I said to Fairmer Broon,
The money that I hae workit for will you kindly lay it doon,
This very day I mean to be in Glesga toon by half past three,
I've been a ower lang a gackie[?] in the country.
Wi ma big Kilmarnock bunnet, as I ran to catch the train,
I'll never forget the trick that was played on me by Sandy Laing,
He said 'Man Jock when ye get tae the toon speir ye for Katie Bain, ma loon,
She bides at number echty street in Glesga.'
Well, when I arrived in Glesga toon, the first young man I met,
I speired at him quite civilly, 'Will ye show me echty street?'
He says, 'Dae ye tak me fur a mug' and wae that he got me on the lug,
Man says he, ye'll meet yer match in Glesca.'

He said 'Man Jock when ye get tae the toon speir ye for Katie Bain, ma loon,
She bides at number echty street in Glesga.'
Well I met up wae a bonnie lass dressed in a strippet frock,
She looked at me and sin she said, 'Hello is that you, Jock?
Yer big Kilmarnock's awfae plum[?] come oan and staun us a doddle o rum,
Foo lang div ye intend tae be in Glesga?'

Now the lassie wi the strippet frock her name wis Katie Bain,
As long as I live I only hope that I will never see her again,
She left me wae ma breeks and shirt and big Kilmarnock covert wae dirt,
And rowin in the muckle streets o Glesga.

Oh but that's nae a ma troubles yet, I'd other three besides,
The nicht bein dark and me being drunk, I fell intae the Clyde,
When bobbies come they ran me and swore they sa' me jumpin in,
I got sixty days in jail in Glesga.

[/ QUOTE ]Well, well, well! Just checked Google and, amazingly, Joe Gordon did make a record of it, so there! I demand my dram!
On the other hand maybe you're thinking of
The Four Tops
The Four Freshmen
The Beatles
The Kingston Four - singalong to the trio version
The Four Seasons
The Forth Valley
