‘Twas my own heart, dilly dilly
That told me so
Call up your men, dilly dilly
Set them to work
Some with a rake, dilly dilly
Some with a fork
Some to make hay, dilly dilly
Some to thresh corn
While you and I, dilly dilly
Keep ourselves warm
Lavender’s blue, dilly dilly
Lavender’s green
When I am king, dilly dilly
You shall be queen
