Wild Mountain Thyme

"Wild Mountain Thyme" lyrics and music Francis McPeake

Oh, the summer time is coming,And the trees are sweetly blooming,And the wild mountain thymeGrows around the blooming heather.

* Will you go, lassie, will you go?And we'll all go togetherTo pull wild mountain thymeAll around the blooming heather,Will you go, lassie, go?

I will build my love a bowerBy yon clear and crystal fountain,And all around the bower,I'll pile flowers from the mountain.

I will roam the country o'erThrough that dark land so dreary;And all the spoils I find,I'll bring to my darling dearie.

If my true love, she won't have me,I will surely find anotherTo pull wild mountain thymeAll around the blooming heather.

Oh, the summertime is comingAnd the trees are bloomingAnd the wild mountain thymeGrows around the blooming heather.
