Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Hori Horo
Allo everybody. Eechlay in partic....
Tiree Love Song
Horee, Horo, my bonny wee lass
Horee, Horo, my fair one
Will ye come awa' wi' me
And be my ane, my rare one.
Smiling the land, shining the sea
Sweet is the smell o' the heather
Would we were younger , you and me
The two o' us together.
Horee etc
All the day long, out on the peat
Then on the shore in the gloaming
Steppin' it lightly wi' dancin feet
And then, together homing.
Horee etc
Laughter above, singing below
Tripping it lightsome and airy
Would we be asking of life for more
My own, my darling Mary.
Horee etc x2 and fade (if ya want!!) :-)
As performed by The McCalmans and me....
Regards to all ...Spot
