A regal track about gaining royal status: This song takes us back to a time long gone when
kings and queens ruled the lands nad lavendar was available to pick in the fields.
The Nursery Rhyme Collection version features a 1978 Fender Precision bass guitar part
couple with a harpsichord, no unlikelier match of instruments you could hear!
Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, lavender's green,
When you are King, dilly dilly, I shall be Queen.
Who told you so, dilly dilly, who told you so?
'Twas my own heart, dilly dilly, that told me so.
Call up your friends, dilly, dilly set them to work,
Some to the plough, dilly dilly, some to the fork.
Some to the hay, dilly dilly, some to thresh corn,
Whilst you and I, dilly dilly, keep ourselves warm.
Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, lavender's green
When you are King, dilly dilly, I shall be Queen
Who told you so, dilly dilly, who told you so?
'Twas my own heart, dilly dilly, that told me so.
