    Black is the colour of my true love's hair
    Her lips are like a rose so fair
    She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
    I love the ground whereon she stands
    I love my love and well she knows
    I love the ground whereon she goes
    And how I wish the day would come
    When she and I can be as one
    Black is the colour of my true love's hair
    Her lips are like a rose so fair
    She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
    I love the ground whereon she stands
    Oh, whereon she stands
    Oh, whereon she stands
    Oh, whereon she stands
    Oh, whereon she stands
    Oh, whereon she stands
    I go to the clyde and mourn and weep
    Satisfied I never will sleep
    I'll write her a letter, just a few short lines
    And suffer death ten thousand times
    Black is the colour of my true love's hair
    Her lips are like a rose so fair
    She's got the sweetest face and the gentlest hands
    I love the ground whereon she stands
    I love ground whereon she stands
    Love the ground
