lyrics
Said oh my bird my bonnie bird, what is that song you sing?
Did you learn the tune and words by wrote, and the sorrow that they bring?
Oh no, oh no the bird it sang, " I've flown up from early morn,
On the second day of wind and rain poor charlie struck for home,
Oh no, the bird it sang.
Last night I saw him in the glen and my heart near burst in side,
So sorely changed by want is he, I watched poor Charly cry,
On the hills that are by rights own he roves a stranger dear,
On the one hand he is pressed by want on the other pressed by fear,
Oh, the bird it sang.
He lay beneath his highland his highland plaid in the cold and in the dark,
His powder and his flint were spent, he could not get a spark,
Night came down the tempest howled over moors and vales,
On the ground the prince lay down lashed by wind and hales,
Oh no,
Oh no the bird it sang.
Then he spied the redcoats and I called from in my tree,
He ran right down upon the coast, this land is not for me,
As I saw him leave these shore humming on a wing,
A tear apeared upon my cheek, it's for Charlie that I sing,
Oh no,
Oh no the bird it sang,
Oh no,
Oh no the bird it sang.

No one can tell you what traditional English music is without tying themselves in handkerchief knots, but you know it when
you hear it. The Lords Of Thyme are traditionally English in the same way that Pentangle or Fotheringay were traditionally English, but also in the same way that Julian Cope undoubtedly is. A hazy, blissed out, ancient and modern country of the strangest imaginations....more

I was on a train travelling to Seefeld in Austria and had nothing but the Alps to look over from the windows. This was a perfect compliment to the environment I was in Robert A Johnson
