Lowlands Away

Lowlands Away

I dreamed a dream the other night

<Lowlands. lowlands away, my John>

My lass she came dressed all in white

<Lowlands away>

My love she came by my bedside

<Lowlands. lowlands away, my John>

Dressed all in white like some fair bride

<Lowlands away>

And bravely in her bosom fair

<Lowlands. lowlands away, my John>

A red, red rose my love did wear

<Lowlands away>

No sound she made, no words she speaks

<Lowlands. lowlands away, my John>

Her cheeks were wet, her eyes did weep

<Lowlands away>

No sound she made, no words she said

<Lowlands. lowlands away, my John>

Twas then I knew my love was dead

<Lowlands away>

Then I awoke to hear the cry

<Lowlands. lowlands away, my John>

A watch on deck, a watch ahoy

<Lowlands away>
