Lyrics:

Oh the summer time is coming
And the trees are sweetly blooming
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather
Would you go lassie go?
And we'll all go together
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather
Would you go lassie go?
I will build my love a bower
On yon pure crystal fountain
And around it I will place
All the colours of the mountain
Would you go lassie go?
And we'll all go together
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather
Would you go lassie go?

If my true love were gone
Then I'll surely find another
And to her I will sing/say
Things that make her know I want her
Would you go lassie go?
And we'll all go together
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather
Would you go lassie go?
