LYRICS - Wild Mountain Thyme (Trad) Oh, the summertime is coming And the trees are sweetly blooming And the wild mountain thyme Grows around the blooming heather Will you go, lassie, go? And we’ll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will you go, lassie, go? And we’ll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will you go, lassie, go? I will build my love a bower By yon clear and crystal fountain And on it, I will pile All the flowers of the mountain Will you go, lassie, go? And we’ll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will you go, lassie, go? If my true love, he won’t have me I will surely find another To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will you go, lassie, go? And we’ll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the blooming heather Will you go, lassie, go? #JamesTaylor #JT #KarenMatheson #WildMountainThyme -- KAREN MATHESON -- -- JAMES TAYLOR -- 🎵 NEW ALBUM 🎵 🌟 FOLLOW JAMES ON SOCIAL 🌟 🌐 VISIT THE WEBSITE 🌐 ✉️ JOIN THE MAILING LIST ✉️ 🎸 FREE GUITAR LESSONS BY JAMES 🎸
