[Chorus]
[Children singing unaccompanied and in unison]
The sail boat sails on the illey alley o
The illey alley o, the illey alley o
The sail boat sails on the illey alley o
Hi ho, the illey alley o
[Chorus]
[Children singing unaccompanied and in unison]
The children sail on the illey alley o
The illey alley o, the illey alley o
The children sail on the illey alley o
Hi ho the illey alley o
[Chorus]
[Children singing unaccompanied and in unison]
Everone's happy on the illey alley o
The illey alley o, the illey alley o
Everyone's happy on the illey alley o
Hi ho, the illey alley o
[Outro]
[Voices gradually fade out]
Hi ho, the illey alley o
