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? 'Twas 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 You must love me, dilly, dilly, for I love you. Let the birds sing, dilly, dilly, And the lambs play We shall be safe, dilly, dilly, out of harm's 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
