Black is the colour of my true love's hair Her lips are like the rose so fair She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands I love the ground whereon she stands
I go to the Clyde to mourn and weep Satisfied I ne'er can sleep I'll write her a letter just a few short lines And suffer death ten thousand times
Black is the colour of my true love's hair Her lips are like the rose so fair She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands I love the ground whereon she stands
