Lowlands Away

I dreamed a dream, the other night,

Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!

My love she came, dressed all in white,

Lowlands away!

She came to me, at my bedside,

Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!

Dressed all in white, like some fair bride,

Lowlands away!

I dreamt my love, came in my sleep,

Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!

Her cheeks were wet, her eyes did weep,

Lowlands away!

And bravely in, her bosom fair,

Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!

A red red rose, my love did wear,

Lowlands away!

She made no sound, no word was said,

Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!

‘Twas then I knew, my love was dead,

Lowlands away!

As I awoke, I heard the cry;

Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!

“All watch on deck! All watch ahoy!”

Lowlands away!
