Oh the summertime 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

And we’ll all go together

To pick wild mountain thyme

All among the purple heather

Will you go lassie go

Lassie go

I will build my love a tower

By the cool crests of waters

And I'll cling to her forever

Like the ivy to the heather

Will you go lassie go

And we’ll all 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

To pick wild mountain thyme

All along the purple heather

Will you go lassie go

And we’ll all go together

To pull wild mountain thyme

All across the purple heather

Will you go lassie go

Lassie go lassie go
