shule, shule, shule-a-roo
shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
when i saw my sally babby beal
come bibble in the boo shy lorey
shule, shule, shule-a-roo
shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
when i saw my sally babby beal
come bibble in the boo shy lorey
here i sit on buttermilk hill
who could blame me, cry my fill
every tear would turn a mill
johnny´s gone for a soldier
shule, shule, shule-a-roo
shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
when i saw my sally babby beal
come bibble in the boo shy lorey
i sold my flax, i sold my wheel
to buy my love a sword of steel
so it in battle he might wield
johnny´s gone for a soldier
oh my baby, oh, my love
gone the rainbow, gone the dove
your father was my only love
johnny´s gone for a soldier
shule, shule, shule-a-roo
shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
when i saw my sally babby beal
come bibble in the boo shy lorey
shule, shule, shule-a-roo
shule-a-rak-shak, shule-a-ba-ba-coo
when i saw my sally babby beal
come bibble in the boo shy lorey
