Traditional - Loch Lomond Lyrics

Loch Lomond

-traditional Scottish song from the late 1800's

By yon bonnie banks & by yon bonnie braes
When the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond
Where me & my true love were ever wont to be
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond

CHORUS
O you'll take the high road & I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland before you
But me & my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond

I mind where we parted in yon shady glen
On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond
Where in the deep purple hues the Highland hills we viewed
And the moon coming out in the gloaming

The wee birdies sing and the wild flowers spring
And in the sunshine the waters are sleeping
But the broken heart will ken no second spring again
And the world does not know how we're greeting
