Lavender Blue (Dilly Dilly)

Lavender blue, dilly, dilly

Lavender green

When I am king, dilly, dilly

You shall be queenWho told you so? Dilly, dilly

Who told you so?

T'was my own heart, dilly, dilly

That told me soCall up your men dilly dilly

Set them to work

Some to the plough dilly dilly

some to the forkSome to cut hay dilly dilly

some to cut corn,

while you and I dilly dilly

Keep ourselves warmLavender green, dilly, dilly

Lavender blue

If you love me, dilly, dilly

I will love youLet the birds sing dilly dilly

And the lambs play,

We shall be safe dilly dilly

Out of harms wayI love to dance dilly dilly

I love to sing,

When I am queen dilly dilly

you'll be my kingWho told me so dilly dilly

who told me so

I told myself dilly dilly

I told me so
