Jockey met with Jenny fair
Betwixt the dawning and the day
But Jockey now is full of care
‘Cause Jenny stole his heart away

And ’tis o’er the hills and far away
And ’tis o’er the hills and far away
And ’tis o’er the hills and far away
The wind has blown my plaid away

Although she promised to be true
Yet she alas has proved unkind
That which did make poor Jockey rue
For Jenny’s fickle as the wind

And ’tis o’er the hills and far away...

Jockey was a piper’s son
He fell in love whilst he was young
And all the tunes he leaned to play
Was over the hills and far away

And ’tis o’er the hills and far away...

When first I saw my Jenny’s face
She did appear with such a grace
With muckle joy my heart was filled
But now alas with sorrow killed

And ’tis o’er the hills and far away...

Farewell, farewell thou cruel she
I fear that I shall die for thee
But if I live this vow I'll make
To love no other for your sake

And ’tis o’er the hills and far away...
