A Lad And A Lass

Girls/
Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling, from glen to glen,
and down the mountain side; The summer's gone,
and all the roses falling,
it's you, it's you must go and I must bide.
But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying, and I am dead,
as dead I well may be,
Ye'll come and find the place where I am
lying and kneel and say an A've there for me.
Altos: But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,
or when the valley's hushed and white with
snow, And I'll be here in sunshine or in shawdow.
Sopranos: Come ye back when summer's in the meadow, the meadow,
or when the valley's hushed and white with snow,
and white with snow, And I'll be here in sunshine or in shawdow.
Girls/
Gals: Oh Danny Boy, Oh Danny Boy, I love you so.
Boys/
Guys: Then wilt come no more, Gentle Annie,
like a flower thy Spirit did depart; Thou art gone, A-las!
like the many that have bloomed in the summer of my heart.
Shall we never more behold thee; Never hear thy winning voice again.
When the springtime comes,
Gentle Annie, When the wild flowers o'er the plain.
Ah!
The hours grow sad while I ponder,
near the silent spot where thou art laid,
And my heart bows down when I wander,
by the streams and the meadows where we stray'd.
Shall we never more behold thee; Never hear thy winning voice again.
When the springtime comes,
Gentle Annie, When the wild flowers o'er the plain.
Boys/
Guys and Girls/
Gals: But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,
or when the valley's hushed and white with

Till you come to me.
A lass named Gentle Annie.
