Red is the Rose

Come over the hills my bonny Irish Lass
Come over the hills to your darling
You choose the rose love and I'll take the vow 
And I'll be your true love forever.

Chorus
So Red is the rose that in yonder garden grows
And fair is the lily of the valley
Clear is the water that flows from the Boyne
But my love is fairer than any.

Twas down by Killarney's green woodlands we strayed
The moon and the stars they were shining
The moon shone it's rays on her locks of golden hair 
And she swore she'd be my love forever

(Then Chorus to Loch Lomond)
You take the high road and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Glasgow before you
So me and my true love will never meet again
On the bonny bonny banks of Loch Lomond

Twas not for the parting of my sister Kate
Twas not for the death of my mother
Twas all for the loss of my bonny Irish Lass
That my heart is breaking forever
Chorus of Loch Lomond 
Then Back to Chorus of Red is the Rose to finish
