Black Is the Color (the classic Scottish folk song, sung by Eddie Biggins)

Black is the Color [chorus:] Black is the color of my true love's hair Her lips are like some roses fair She's the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands. I love the ground whereon she stands I love my love and well she knows I love the ground whereon she goes. But sometimes I wish the day will come That she and I will be as one [chorus:] I walk to the Clyde for to mourn and weep But satisfied I never can sleep I'll write her a letter, just a few short lines And suffer death ten thousand times [chorus:] #scottishfolk #folkmusic #celticmusic
