about

All proceeds from this track will be going to the Heart Diseases and Research Trust.
I recorded this stripped back, piano version of Wild Mountain Thyme at home in the north east of Scotland and with the talents of Aidan Hargreaves on strings. It's a song that meant a lot to my Aunty Ibbie, who passed away in December and making this was my small tribute to her. I hope you'll appreciate its simplicity.

lyrics

O the summer time has come
And the trees are sweetly bloomin'
The wild mountain thyme
Grows around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
I will build my love a bower
By yon cool crystal fountain
And 'round it I will pile
All the wild flowers o' the mountain
Will ye go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
I will range through the wilds
And the deep glen sae dreary
And return wi' their spoils
To the bower o' my dearie
Will ye go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
If my true love she'll not come
Then I'll surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the bloomin' heather
Will ye go, lassie, go?
