Sally O - Tommy Makem

I wish I had my Sally O

Sally O, Sally O

I wish I had my Sally O

Where the wild birds sing on the mountain

Let the winds blow high, let the winds blow low

I’d feel no cold from the frost or snow

If I only had my Sally O

Where the wild birds sing on the mountain

Oh, I would gather flowers so sweet

Flowers so sweet, flowers so sweet

And pile them 'round my Sally’s feet

Where the wild birds sing on the mountain

Oh, I’d bring salmon from the stream

From the stream, form the stream

And berries fit for any queen

Where the wild birds sing on the mountain

Oh, we’d have music all the day

All the day, all the day

And peace that drives all care away

Where the wild birds sing on the mountain
