Oh the Summer-time has come....

Well, not really, yet. It sure feels like it. On my walk yesterday, I had one of my favorite spring time tunes in my head. It's a RARE song to hear as its an Old Celtic Scottish song. (As my family has a lot of Scottish history, this might explin why I love it so!) So, guess my surprise when, at work today, here comes the owner of the company I work for walking down the hall WHISTLING IT!!!
Oh, the summer-time has come
And the trees
are sweetly bloomin'
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the
purple heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
Refrain:
And
we'll all go together,
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the
purple heather;
Will ye go, lassie, go?
I will build my love a tower
By yon pure,
crystal fountain,
And it's there I will bring
All the flowers of
the mountain;
Will ye go, lassie, go?
Refrain
I will range through the wilds
And the deep
land so dreary
And return with the spoils
To the bower o' my
dearie;
Will ye go, lassie, go?
Refrain
If my true love will not come
I will surely
find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the purple
heather;
Will ye go, lassie, go?
Refrain
Oh, the autumn-time is comin'
And the leaves
will soon be fallin',
And the blossoms o' the summer
Will soon
wither on the mountain;
Will ye go, lassie, go?
Refrain
