A traditional song from 17th century England. There are a few versions around but I think
this one has most,if not all,of the original verses and a simple chord progression which
seems quite effective. No verses/chorus as such it's just a sing right through song.
DLavender's blue dilly dilly Glavender's green
DWhen I am king dilly dilly Ayou shall be Dqueen
DLavender's green dilly dilly Glavender's blue
DYou must love me dilly dilly A'cos I love Dyou
DDown in the vale dilly dilly Gwhere flowers grow
DAnd the birds sing dilly dilly Aall in a Drow
DA brisk young man dilly dilly Gmet with a maid
DAnd laid her down dilly dilly Aunder the Dshade
DThere they did play dilly dilly Gand kiss and court
DAll the fine day dilly dilly Amaking good Dsport
DI've heard them say dilly dilly Gsince I came hither
DThat you and I dilly dilly Amight lie toDgether
DTherefore be kind dilly dilly Gwhile here we lie
DAnd you will love dilly dilly Amy dog and DI
DFor you and I dilly dilly Gnow all are one
DAnd we will lie dilly dilly Ano more aDlone
DLavender's blue dilly dilly Glavender's green
DLet me be king dilly dilly Ayou be the Dqueen
DLavender's green dilly dilly Glavender's blue
DYou must love me dilly dilly A'cos I love Dyou
