A blacksmith courted me Nine months and better He fairly won my heart Wrote me a letter With his hammer in his hand He looked quite clever And if I was with my love I'd live forever. And where is my love gone With his cheeks like roses And his good black Billycock on Decked with with primroses I'm afraid the scorching sun Will shine and burn his beauty And if I was with my love I'd do my duty. Strange news is coming to town Strange news is carried Strange news flies up and down That my love is married. I wish them both much joy Though they can't hear me And may God reward him well For the slighting of me. What did you promise love when You sat beside me And you said you'd marry me And not deny me If I said I'd marry you It was only for to try you So bring your witness love And I'll not deny you. No witness have I none Save God Almighty And he'll reward you well For the slighting of me Her lips grew pale and witte It made a poor heart tremble To think she loved one And he proved deceitful.

Oh the summertime is coming And the trees are softly blooming And the wild mountain thyme Grows around the blooming heather Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, lassie, go? If my true love will not come I will surely find another To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, lassie, go? I will build my love a tower Near the pure crystal fountain And it's there I shall bring All the flowers of the mountain Will ye go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will ye go, lassie, go?
