Step It Out Mary
In the Village of Kildoran
lived a maiden young and fair
Her eyes, they shone like diamonds
She had long and golden hair
The countryman came riding up to her daddy's gate, mounted on a milk-white stallion
He came at the stroke of eight
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out Mary if you can
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman
I have come to court your daughter
Mary of the golden hair
I have gold and I have silver
I have lands beyond compare
I will buy her silks and satins and a gold ring for her hand
I will buy her a mansion, she'll have servants to command
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out Mary if you can
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman
Oh kind Sir I have a soldier and I have pledged to him my hand
I don't want your gold nor silver
I don't want your horse nor land
Mary's father Spoke up sharply, you will do as you are told
You'll marry him on sunday and you'll wear the ring of gold"
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out Mary if you can
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman
In the village of Kildoran there's a deep stream running by
They found Mary there on sunday, she had drowned with soldier boy
In the cottage there is music, you can hear her daddy say
Step it out Mary my fine daughter
Sunday is your wedding day
lived a maiden young and fair
Her eyes, they shone like diamonds
She had long and golden hair
The countryman came riding up to her daddy's gate, mounted on a milk-white stallion
He came at the stroke of eight
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out Mary if you can
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman
I have come to court your daughter
Mary of the golden hair
I have gold and I have silver
I have lands beyond compare
I will buy her silks and satins and a gold ring for her hand
I will buy her a mansion, she'll have servants to command
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out Mary if you can
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman
Oh kind Sir I have a soldier and I have pledged to him my hand
I don't want your gold nor silver
I don't want your horse nor land
Mary's father Spoke up sharply, you will do as you are told
You'll marry him on sunday and you'll wear the ring of gold"
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out Mary if you can
Step it out Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman
In the village of Kildoran there's a deep stream running by
They found Mary there on sunday, she had drowned with soldier boy
In the cottage there is music, you can hear her daddy say
Step it out Mary my fine daughter
Sunday is your wedding day
