Campfire songs

Green Grow the Rushes O

I'll sing you one o
Green grow the rushes o
What is your one o
One is one and all alone
And ever more 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
Clothed all in green o
One is one and all alone
And ever more shall be so.

Three, three the rivals
Four for the Gospel makers
Five for the symbols at your door
Six for the six brown walkers
Seven for the seven stars in the sky
Eight for the April rainers.
Nine for the nine bright shiners
Ten for the Ten Commandments
Eleven for the eleven that went to heaven
Twelve for the twelve apostles.
