Down the Moor

歌詞

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
