Oh, the summertime is comin'
And the trees are sweetly bloomin'
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the purple heather
Will you go? Lassie, will you go?

And we'll all go together
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go? Lassie, will you go?

I will build my love a tower
By yon pure and crystal fountain
Yes and on it I will lay
All the flowers of the mountain
Will you go? Lassie, will ya go?

And we will all go together
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go? Lassie, will you go?

If my true love won't come with me
Then I would surely find another
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go? Lassie, will ya go?

And we will all go together
To pick wild mountain thyme
All around the purple heather
Will you go?
Will you go?
Lassie will you go?
