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 bu*termilk 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. 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. 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.
