Lyrics :

Lavender blue, dilly dilly hmm
Lavender green
When I am king dilly dilly hmm, I need a queen
Ooh you told me so, dilly dilly I told myself
In a dilly dilly church
Beside a dilly dilly stream
If your answer's yes
In our dilly dilly church
Beside a dilly dilly stream
Ah you'll be mine in a dilly dilly dream
So, lavender blue, dilly dilly dilly hmm
Lavender green
When I am king, dilly dilly I need a queen

In a dilly dilly church
Veside a dilly dilly stream
If our dilly dilly church
Beside a dilly dilly stream
Ah you'll be mine in a dilly dilly dream
So, lavender blue, dilly dilly dilly hmm
Lavender green
When I am king, dilly dilly I need a queen

N.B. Gene chantait ce titre sur scène bien avant qu'il l'enregistre en studio.
