Bluebell, Cockleshell, 1 2 3
Stand at ease
Bend your knees
Bow to the west, salute to the east
We're all sitting on our mammy's knees
Bluebell, Cockleshell, 1 2 3
Stand at ease
Bend your knees
Salute to the king
Bow to the queen
What a lot of fisherwives I can see
Ding dong goes the castle bell
So Fare thee well my mother
Bury me in the old churchyard
Beside my only brother
My coffin shall be black
Six white angels at my back
Two to sing, two to pray
Two to carry my soul away
Bluebell, Cockleshell, 1 2 3
Stand at ease
Bend your knees
Salute to the king, bow to the queen
What a lot of fisherwives I can see
Bluebell, Cockleshell, 1 2 3
Stand at ease, bend your knees
The queen didn't want me so she sent me to the king
The king said close your eyes and count to sixteen
Ding dong goes the castle bell
Fare thee well my mother
Bury me in the old churchyard
Beside my only brother
My coffin shall be black
Six white angels at my back
Two to sing, two to pray
Two to carry my soul away
Bluebell, Cockleshell, 1 2 3
Stand at ease
Bend your knees
The queen didn't want me so she sent me to the king
The king said close your eyes and count to sixteen
Bluebell, Cockleshell, 1 2 3
Stand at ease
Bend your knees
Bow to the west, salute to the east
We're all sitting on our mammy's knees
