purple heather

oh the summer time is gone

and the leaves are sweetly turning

and the wild mountain thyme

blooms across the purple heather

will you go

lassie. go

if you will not go with me

i will never find another

to pick wild mountain thyme

all along the purple heather

will you go

lassie

go

lassie

go

i will build my love a tower

by the cool crystal waters

and i'll cling to her forever

like the ivy to the heather

will you go

lassie

go

and we'll go together

to pick wild mountain thyme

all along the purple heather

will you go

lassie

go

lassie

go

will you go

lassie

go

]

and we'll all go together

tp pull wild mountain thyme

all across the purple heather

will you go

lassie

go

lassie

go

lassie

go
