Ye Banks and Braes - The Real McKenzies

Ye banks and braes of bonnie doon

How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair

How can ye chant ye tiny wee birds

And I sae weary and nae full o' care

Ye break me heart; ye birds that sing

That warble through the flowery thorn

Ye remind me of a departed joy

Departed forever tae never return

I've often roamed by bonnie doon

To walk by the ocean the wind and the sky

And like the birdees that sing o' their love

Sae fondly say did I of mine

With lightsome heart I spied a rose

So sweet and aglow on thorny tree

And my false love did steal that rose

And all she left me was but a thorn

I've often roamed by bonnie doon

To walk by the ocean the wind and the sky

And like the birdees that sing o' their love

Sae fondly say did I of mine

With lightsome heart I spied a rose

So sweet and aglow on thorny tree

And my false love did steal that rose

And all she left me was but a thorn

And all she left me was but a thorn

And all she left me was but a thorn
