Lyrics:

The summer time is come
And the trees are sweetly bloomin'
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows amang the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?

Chorus:
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?

I will build my love a bower
By yon clear crystal fountain
And on it I will pile
A' the flooers o' the mountain
Will ye go, lassie, go?

(Chorus)

If my true love, she were gone
I would surely find another
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows amang the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?

(Chorus 2x)
