Up Among the Heather
Irish Rovers

Chorus:

Up among the heather at the hellabenafee

Sitting with a wee girl rolling on my knee

A bungbee stung me well above the knee

Up among the heather at the hellabenafee

One day I went walking in the merry month of May

I met a little country girl And this thy heard me say

Let me walk along with you and hold you by the hand

Maybe I can help you fill your wee tin can

Chorus

Well we walked along for quite awhile and we came by the stream

Then she says come here me boy and show me what you mean

Come on and keep your bargain I'll help you if I can

The two of us will start To fill me wee tin can

Chorus

We sat down together Close by the stream

Then I says come here me girl I'll show what I mean

I hugged her and I kissed her Like an Irish man

It didn't take me long To fill her wee tin can

Chorus

So girls when you're courting Take my advice

Never let an Irish man Kiss you more than twice

All the time he's cuddling you He's thinking up a plan

To get a wee-be rattle at your ould tin can

Chorus
