Black Is the Colour |
| Black is the colour of my true love’s hair |
| His lips are like some roses fair |
| She’s the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands |
| And I love the ground whereon she stands |
| I love my love and well he knows |
| I love the ground where on she goes |
| How I wish the time would soon come |
| When he and I can be as one |
| I go to the Clyde and mourn and weep |
| for satisfied I’d never sleep |
| I write him a letter, just a few short lines |
| And I suffer death ten thousand times |
| Black is the colour of my true love’s hair |
| His lips are like some roses fair |
| She’s the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands |
| And I love the ground whereon he stands |
| I love the ground whereon he stands |
| I love, I love, I love the ground where on she stands |
