Lavender-Blue (Dilly-dilly)

Lavender blue
Dilly-dilly
Lavender green
If I were king
Dilly-dilly
I'd need a queen
Whoa-oh, 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
If you'll 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
You'll be my queen
Then I'll be king
Dilly-dilly
You'll be my queen
(Lavender blue, dilly-dilly)

(Larry Morey and Eliot Daniel)

  1. I remember this song from my childhood! And Burl Ives, too. But not Burl Ives singing this song. You do find the most interesting things in your web travels : )

  2. my dear friend opened the most amazing shop years ago named
    lavender blue.
    sadly it has gone by the wayside with so many wonderful small shops as the economy still limps along.
    thanks for YOU!

  3. Thanks Rebecca. I found these beautiful flowers and then this old song came to mind. I searched for burl Ives singing it and came upon the wonderful old Disney video. The song has been going through my mind all day. So many memories. Some songs just make you happy for no reason.
