By yon bonnie banks, by yon bonnie braes Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond Me and my true love were ever want to be On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond You take the high road and I'll take the low road I'll be in Scotland before you But me and my true love will never meet again On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond Mind where we parted in yon shady glen On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond
Where in deep purple hues The Highland hills we viewed And the moon coming out in the gloaming You take the high road and I'll take the low road… The wee birdies sing and the wild flowers spring And the sunshine and the waters are sleeping The broken heart it kens, no second Spring again And the world does not know how we're greeting You take the high road And I'll take the low road…
