GREEN GROW THE RUSHES HO

I'll sing you one hoe,
Green grow the rushes - hoe!
What is your one-hoe?
One is one and all along and
evermore shall be so.

I'll sing you two-hoe,
Green grow the rushes-hoe!
What is your two-hoe?
Two, two, the lily-white boys,
clothe them all in green-hoe,
One is one and all along and
evermore shall be so.

(Repeat above verse for all twelve)

three, three, the rivals.
Four for the gospel makers.
Five for the symbols at your door.
Six for the six proud 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 went to heaven.
Twelve for the twelve Apostles.
