Lowlands

Tune: from oral tradition.
Words: oral tradition and from the singing of Ron Clarke.


    I dreamed a dream the other night
    Lowlands, lowlands away my John
    I dreamed a dream the other night
    Lowlands, my lowlands away.

    My love came in all dressed in white
    Lowlands, lowlands away my John
    My love came in all dressed in white
    Lowlands, my lowlands away.

    No sound she made, no word she said
    Lowlands, lowlands away my John
    No sound she made, no word she said
    Lowlands, my lowlands away.

    Twas then I knew my love was dead
    Lowlands, lowlands away my John
    Twas then I knew my love was dead
    Lowlands, my lowlands away.
