Lavender's Blue From the Disney movie "So Dear To My Heart"

Heather Reynolds

Circle Left
Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, Lavender's green
Men Star Right and go dilly, dilly - Allemande Left and Weave the ring
Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, Lavender's green
When you are King, dilly dilly, I shall be Queen.

Note: Burl Ives' original male lyric was
If I were King, dilly dilly, I'd need a Queen

Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, Lavender's green
...
Roses are red, dilly, dilly, Violets are blue
Because you love me, dilly, dilly, I will love you

Lavender's blue, dilly dilly, Lavender's green
...
Let the birds sing, dilly, dilly, And the lambs play
We shall be safe, dilly, dilly, Out of harm's way

Heads/Sides Promenade halfway dilly dilly
Down the middle, Square Thru 4
Go all the Way and a Right & Left Thru, turn the girl
Veer Left and Couples Circulate
Half Tag, Scoot Back, Scoot Back Again
Swing and all Promenade
When you are King, dilly dilly, I shall be Queen.
