Oh, the summer time is coming,
And the trees are sweetly blooming,
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the purple heather.
Will you go, lassie, will you go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather,
Will you go, lassie, go?
I will build my love a bower
By yon clear and crystal fountain,
And all around the bower,
I'll pile flowers from the mountain.
If my true love, she won't have me,
I will surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather.
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather,
Will you go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather,
Will you go, lassie, go?
Will you go, lassie, go?
Will you go, lassie, go?
