I'll sing you one-o! Green grow the rushes-o What is your one-o? One is one and all alone And evermore shall be so I'll sing you two-o! Green grow the rushes-o What is your two-o? Two, two, the lily-white boys clothéd all in green-o One is one and all alone And evermore shall be so I'll sing you three-o! Green grow the rushes-o What is your three-o? Three, three the rivals Two, two, the lily-white boys clothed all in green-o For one is one and all alone And evermore shall be so A Soul, a soul, a soul cake Please me with your soul cake Who bit the apple Who stole the cherry Knock it down make us merry One for the rise Two for the fall Three for the knot that ties us all Four for the shine Five stars call Six to carry us from this brawl Who made us all Who made us all Bless the makers of this house the company, our kin The chosen word, the dramaturge The flesh, the sweat, the skin Bless the babies in this bed The sinus and the snot The regiment, the new ferment God bless the whole damn lot For a soul, a soul, a soul cake Bake or break a soul cake Scrump the apple Glass the cherry Parsley, sage & rosemary Thyme to rise Time to fall Time to take your curtain call Time is up Time it mends Time brings all things to an end Bless the keepers of this house The fool, the mime, the clown The mask of your forgotten dream Black velvet ballroom gown The pasodoble, the promenade The moves we learned from France The do-si-do, The small red nose Lock sword, lord of dance For a soul, a soul, a soul cake Dance with death in a soul cake An apple, a pear, a plum or a cherry All the fruits of this luminary One for the sea Two for the soil Three for a spin on this mortal coil Seven bright stars in the sky Six for the six proud walkers Some have symbols at their door Some are alive-ee-i no more Some will rise Some will fall Some will never hear the call
