Lavender Blue (Dilly - Dilly) · Burl Ives

So Dear To My Heart

℗ 1948 Walt Disney Pictures

Composer Lyricist: Larry Morey/Eliot Daniel

Lavender's blue, dilly, dilly
Lavender's green
If I were king, dilly, dilly
I'd need a queen

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
And 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
And you'll be my queen
