Lavender’s blue,
dilly, dilly
Lavender’s green
When I am king,
dilly, dilly
You shall be queen
Who told you so
Dilly, dilly
Who told you so
T'was my own heart,
dilly, dilly
That told me so
Call up your men,
dilly dilly
Set them to work
Some to the plough
dilly dilly
some to the fork
Some to make hay
dilly dilly
some to cut corn,
while you and I
dilly dilly
Keep ourselves warm
Lavender’s green,
dilly, dilly
Lavender’s blue
If you love me,
dilly, dilly
I will love you
Let the birds sing
dilly dilly
And the lambs play,
We shall be safe
dilly dilly
Out of harms way
I love to dance
dilly dilly
I love to sing,
When I am queen
dilly dilly
you'll be my king
Who told me so
dilly dilly
who told me so
I told myself
dilly dilly
I told me so
Lavender’s blue,
dilly, dilly
Lavender’s green
When I am king,
dilly, dilly
You shall be queen
Who told you so
Dilly, dilly
Who told you so
T'was my own heart,
dilly, dilly
That told me so
Call up your men,
dilly dilly
Set them to work
Some to the plough
dilly dilly
some to the fork
Some to make hay
dilly dilly
some to cut corn,
while you and I
dilly dilly
Keep ourselves warm
Lavender’s green,
dilly, dilly
Lavender’s blue
If you love me,
dilly, dilly
I will love you
Let the birds sing
dilly dilly
And the lambs play,
We shall be safe
dilly dilly
Out of harms way
I love to dance
dilly dilly
I love to sing,
When I am queen
dilly dilly
you'll be my king
Who told me so
dilly dilly
who told me so
I told myself
dilly dilly
I told me so
