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'd 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 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
