Salter's Road was the old salt smuggling route that ran inland through The Lothians from Prestonpans on the River Forth, and directly past my house (and Molly's).

She was waiting for a boy In her corduroy britches Driving on a Clydesdale like her father once had done From Mutton Hole to Preston Hall through all the dells and ditches And an avenue of burly beech that reach towards the sun
For miles and miles and miles she'd roam Down Salter's Road to Fala Dam and all the way home For miles and miles and miles she'd roam

For miles and miles and miles she'd roam Down Salter's Road to Fala Dam and all the way home For miles and miles and miles she'd roam
Down the spine of the St Lawrence To Kirkwall's stony shore The old north wind gathers her into his arms once more

For miles and miles and miles she'd roam Down Salter's Road to Fala Dam and all the way home For miles and miles and miles she'd roam Down Whippielaw and Windy Mains and all the way home All the way home …
