Down the Moor |
As I roved out on the moor one day |
It being fair and sunny weather |
Some miles from home I chanced to roam |
Across the bonny purple heather |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Some miles from home I chanced to roam |
Across the bonny purple heather |
Down the moor |
As I rolled along to the hunting song |
My heart was light as any feather |
When I saw a lass coming o’er the grass |
Tripping the dew from off the heather |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Some miles from home I chanced to roam |
Across the bonny purple heather |
Down the moor |
I said my lass, where are you going |
Hill or dale oh, tell me whither |
I’m going to the banks of the bonny brown braes |
For the feeding of my lambs together |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Some miles from home I chanced to roam |
Across the bonny purple heather |
Down the moor |
So up she got and away she went |
Her name or place I ne’er did gather |
But if I were king, I’d make her queen |
That bonny wee lass across the heather |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Down the moor and across the heather |
Some miles from home I chanced to roam |
Across the bonny purple heather |
Down the moor |
