Subject: Lyr Req: Rue and Thyme
Can anyone help? I'm looking for the words to a song I have heard sung in sessions at home a few times entitled Rue and Thyme. The chorus is along the lines of
"Oh Rue, Oh rue,
Oh rue is in prime.
Ye will pu' the red rose
And I will pu' the thyme.

Please don't suggest askinghte singers for it, as it was a while ago. I also had a recording of it by Maureen Jelks but have lost/lent that somehow.
I have also hunted around for it and can find references to the song on playlists but no lyrics or further info on it.
