Great-grandfather met great-grandmother

When she was a shy young miss

And great-grandfather won great-grandmother

With words, more less, like this...

Lavender blue dilly dilly

Lavender green

If I were king dilly dilly,

I'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'll answer "yes,"

In a pretty little church,

On a dilly dilly day,

You'll be wed in the dilly dilly dress of

Lavender blue dilly dilly

Lavender green

Then I'll be king dilly dilly

And you'll be my queen

If your dilly dilly heart

Feels a dilly dilly way

And if you'll answer "yes,"

In a pretty little church,

On a dilly dilly day,

You'll be wed in the dilly dilly dress of

Lavender blue dilly dilly

Lavender green

Then I'll be king dilly dilly

And you'll be my queen
