As I stood upon the Dean Bridge and viewed the beautiful scenery	A
I felt fascinated and my heart was full of glee	A
And I exclaimed in an ecstasy of delight	B
In all my travels I never saw such a sight	B
	-
The scenery is so enchanting to look upon	C
That all tourists will say Dull care be gone	D
'Tis certainly a most lovely spot	E
And once seen it can never be forgot	E
	-
Then away away to the River of Leith	F
That springs from the land of heather and heath	F
And view the gorgeous scenery on a fine summer day	G
I'm sure it will drive dull care away	G
	-
The water fall near the Bridge is most beautiful to be seen	H
As it falls and shines like crystal in the sunsheen	H
And the sound can be heard all day long	I
While the innocent trouts sing an aquatic song	I
	-
The glen is a cool spot in the summer time	J
There the people can be shaded from the sunshine	H
Under the spreading branches of the big trees	K
And there's seats there to rest on if they please	K
	-
Then near St Bernard's Well there's a shady bower	L
Where the lovers if they like can spend an hour	L
And while they rest there at their ease	K
They can make love to each other if they please	K
	-
The water of St Bernard's Well is very nice	M
But to get a drink of it one penny is the price	M
I think in justice the price is rather high	N
To give a penny for a drink when one feels dry	N
	-
The braes of the River Leith is most charming to be seen	H
With its beautiful trees and shrubberies green	H
And as the tourist gazes on the river in the valley below	O
His heart with joy feels all aglow	O
	-
There the little trouts do sport and play	G
During the live long summer day	G
While the bee and butterfly is on the wing	P
And with the singing of birds the glen doth ring	P
	-
The walk underneath the Dean Bridge is lovely to see	A
And as ye view the scenery it will fill your heart with glee	A
It is good for the people's health to be walking there	Q
As they gaze on the beauties of Nature and inhale pure air	Q
	-
The Dean Bridge is a very magnificent sight	B
Because from the basement it is a great height	B
And it seems most attractive to the eye	N
And arrests the attention of strangers as they pass by	N
	-
The braes of Belgrave Crescent is lovely to see	A
With its beautiful walks and green shrubbery	A
'Tis health for the people that lives near by there	Q
To walk along the bonny walks and breathe the sweet air	Q
	-
Therefore all lovers of the picturesque bo advised by me	A
And the beautiful scenery of the River Leith go and see	A
And I am sure you will get a very great treat	R
Because the River of Leith scenery cannot be beat	R
