ciarili Lyr Req: With My Dog and Gun - Mountain Streams (28) ADD: The Mountain Streams 11 Apr 02


Here you go!

The Mountain Streams

With my dog and gun through the bloomin' heather
To seek for passtime I took my way
Where I espied a lovely, fair maid
And her charms invited me a while to stay
I said, My dear, you will find that I love you
Tell me your dwelling and your name also
Oh, excuse my name and you'll find my dwelling near
The mountain streams where the moorcocks crow

I said, My darling, if you'll wed a rover
My former raking I will leave aside
Here is my hand and I pledge my honour
and if you prove constant I'll make you my bride
Well, if my parents knew that I loved a rover
Great affliction I would undergo
So I'll stay at home for another season near
The mountain streams where the moorcocks crow

Then farewell, darling, for another season
I hope we'll meet again in yon moorland vale
And when we meet we'll embrace each other
And I'll pay attention to your lovesick tale
It's hand in hand we will join together
And I'll escort you to yon valley low
Where the linnet sings her note so pleasing near
The mountain streams where the moorcocks crow
