Lavender Blue (Dilly Dilly)

Lavender blue, dilly, dilly

Lavender green

If I were king, dilly, dilly

I'd need a queen

Who told me so, dilly, dilly?

Who told me so?

I told myself, dilly, dilly

I told me so

If your dilly, dilly heart

Feels a dilly, dilly way

And if you answer yes

In a pretty little church

On a dilly, dilly day

You'll be wed in a dilly, dilly dress

Of lavender blue, dilly, dilly

Lavender green

Then I'll be king, dilly, dilly

And you'll be my queen

Great-grandfather met great-grandmother

When she was a shy young miss

And great-grandfather won great-grandmother

With words more or less like this

Lavender blue, dilly, dilly

Lavender green

If you were king, dilly, dilly

You need a queen

Who told you so, dilly, dilly?

Who told you so?

I told myself, dilly, dilly

I told me so

If your dilly, dilly heart (ooh)

Feels a dilly, dilly way

And if you'll answer yes

In a pretty little church (ooh)

On a dilly, dilly day

You'll be wed in a dilly, dilly dress of

Lavender blue, dilly, dilly

Lavender green

Then I'll be king, dilly, dilly

And you'll be my queen
