Wild Mountain Thyme - The Petersens (LIVE)

«Wild Mountain Thyme» was our favorite song we learned while touring Ireland. It has Scottish origins and there are many different versions out there, but we consulted Pat Kelleher, a friend we met on our first tour, and had him send us his arrangement. Hope you all enjoy it! ►More inspired by our time in Ireland: ►Photo album: ----------------------- ►Useful links: ►Social media: Go behind the scenes with @ThePetersenFamily ►This video: Lead vocal and guitar: @mattpetersen4000 Harmony vocal and banjo: @EllenHaygood Harmony vocal and mandolin: @JuliannePetersen Fiddle: @katiepetersen Dobro: Emmett Franz Bass: Karen Petersen Key moments: 0:01 fiddle 0:40 guitar 2:45 dobro 2:55 bass 4:40 outro Turn on captions (CC) to see the lyrics on screen.

And we'll all go together To pluck wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will you go, lassie, go? I will build my love a bower Near yon pure crystal fountain And on it I will place All the flowers of the mountain Will you go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pluck wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will you go, lassie, go? If my true love, she were gone* I would surely find another Where the wild mountain thyme Grows around the bloomin' heather Will you go, lassie...
