Purple Heather
Lyrics and Music: Frankie McPeake

 

Oh the summer time is gone and the leaves are sweetly turning.

And the wild mountains 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 along the purple heather.

Will you go, lassie, go?

Lassie, go...

 

I will build my love a tower by the cool crystal 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..
