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
