Refrain:
Halle mucke do, hool over he,
hool over himba, hool over himba,
Halle mucke do, hool over he,
oh ricko ricko dandy

1. When ye son can come to me
Will he come by the great north sea
Will he buy a lullaby
Oh tell me to the willow

Refrain:

2. Willow see, why dust you see
This you make your day by day
When we love I part my way
Or tell me to the willow

Refrain:

3. Will he dark or is he there
Jalou boar or there by there
Will ye boar I beg my hair
To a knitting kneet by hoola
