Paddy Reilly - Go Lassie Go

Oh, the summertime is coming
And the trees are sweetly blooming
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather
Will you go lassie, go

And we’ll all go together
To pluck wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather
Will you go lassie, go

I will build my love a Town
Near yon pure crystal fountain
And on it I will build
All the flowers of the mountain
Will you go lassie, go

And we all go together
to pluck wild mountain thyme
all around the blooming heather
will you go lassie go

If my true love she were gone
I would surely find another
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather
Will you go lassie, go

And we all go together
to pluck wild mountain thyme
all around the blooming heather
will you go lassie go

And we all go together
to pluck wild mountain thyme
all around the blooming heather
will you go lassie go

Undoubtedly one of Ireland's best balladeers.

Have listened to Paddy since growing up. Have all his albums and lucky enough to have a signed one from him. His voice is incredible. Absolutely love him.

I still remember the first time I heard Paddy's voice. I was no more than 12 and I still remember it as a turning point in my life. I couldn't figure out who he was for at least a decade... but after I did... pure heaven

Beautiful song, delivered by a real minstrel. Verse 3, line 1, should read "bower", rather than "town" in the printed verses. Joan Baez version from 1965 in Edinburgh a real time capsule - ethereal.
