Loch Lomond by Lady John Douglas Scott
By yon bonnie banks and by yon bonnie braes
Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond
Where me and my true love were ever wont to gae
On the bonnie banks o’ Loch Lomond
Chorus
O, ye’l
take the high road, And I’ll take the low road
And I’ll be in Scotland afore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o’ Loch Lomond
‘Twas there that we parted in yon shady glen
On the steep, steep side o’Ben Lomond
Where in purple hue, the Hieland hills we viewed
And the moon comin’out in the gloamin’
Chorus
O, ye’ll take the high road, And I’ll take the low road
And I’ll be in Scotland afore ye
But me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonnie, bonnie banks o’ Loch Lomond
The wee birdies sing, and the wild flowers spring
While in sunshine the waters are sleeping
But the broken heart kens nae second spring again
Through the waefu’ may cease frae their greetin’
Chorus
O, ye’ll take the high road, And I’ll take the low road
And I’ll be in Scotland afore ye
But me and my true love will
