Thyme, 'tis a Pretty Flower

Intro
Thyme, 'tis a pretty flower
That grows out under the sun
And it's time you and I have come to an end
For it's now our time runs on.

   Refrain
   Thyme, 'tis a pretty flower
   That grows out under the sun
   And it's time you and I have come to an end
   For it's now our time runs on.

It's very well drinking ale, but
It's still better drinking wine
And it's far better sitting on a bonny boy's knee
That gains this heart of mine.

Oh, she walks in the garden
This lady oh so fine
And she weeds her garden green
'Lets no one steal her thyme.

It's very well drinking ale, but
It's still better drinking wine
And it's far better sitting on a bonny boy's knee
That gains this heart of mine.
