Lyrics
D G D
Oh the summer time is coming
G D
And the leaves are are sweetly turning
G D Bm
And the wild mountain Thyme
Em G
Grows around the blooming heather
D G D
Will ye go Lassie go

Chorus
G D
And we'll all go together
G D Bm
To pull wild mountain Thyme
Em G
All around the blooming heather
D G G
Will ye go Lassie go


I will build my love a tower
Near yon pure crystal fountain
And on it I will build
All the flowers of the mountain

Will ye go Lassie go
(Chorus)

If you will not go with me
I will surely find another
To pull wild mountain Thyme
All around the blooming heather

Will ye go Lassie go?
(Chorus x2 end)
