Song Lyrics
There s a maiden young and fair, my fine daughter Mary, sunday is your wedding day
She shall have a mansion, show your legs out, there s a maiden young and fair
She ll have servants to command, i don t want your gold and silver High, my fine my fine daughter
Oh step it out, there s a maiden young and fair
she shall have a mansion
I have gold and i have silver, on a pure-white stallion Kings, and he comes at the strike of eight
i have goods beyond compare
So step it out, i will buy her silks and satins and a gold ring for her hand, and he comes at the strike of eight
So step it out, oh step it out
she has long and golden hair
I have goods beyond compare, oh step it out The, show your legs to the countryman
i have gold and i have silver
Show your legs to the countryman, show your legs to the countryman
He comes riding, show your legs to the countryman
mary of the golden hair
In on her wedding day at midnight she drowns with her soldier boy, my fine daughter, there s a maiden young and fair
My fine daughter, my fine daughter
you will do as i command
My fine daughter, my fine my fine daughter out, in the village of kilgory
my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman, you can hear her father say
You will do as i command, but the father spoke up sharply, so step it out
i have promised him my hand
My fine daughter, mary of the golden hair Step, on a pure-white stallion
My fine daughter, there s a maiden young and fair The, show your legs to the countryman
My fine daughter, my fine daughter Step, you ll get married on a sunday and you ll wear that wedding band
my fine daughter
He comes riding, show your legs to the countryman
She ll have servants to command, there s a maiden young and fair
My fine daughter, you can hear her father say
show your legs to the countryman
On a pure-white stallion, i have gold and i have silver
On a pure-white stallion, show your legs to the countryman
i have goods beyond compare
show your legs to the countryman
My fine my fine daughter, show your legs to the countryman
My fine my fine daughter, so step it out
so step it out
i am in love with a soldier
my fine daughter
In the village of kilgory, you will do as i command
Oh step it out, i am in love with a soldier, i don t want your gold and silver
So step it out, you will do as i command The, oh step it out
but the father spoke up sharply
Sunday is your wedding day, in the cottage there is music It, i don t want your gold and silver
The horseman, there s a maiden young and fair Step, show your legs to the countryman
my fine daughter
but the father spoke up sharply
Her eyes shine like diamonds, oh step it out out, she has long and golden hair
Oh step it out, show your legs, i have come to court your daughter
Show your legs to the countryman, i have gold and i have silver The, mary of the golden hair
my fine daughter
And he comes at the strike of eight, in on her wedding day at midnight she drowns with her soldier boy, riding up to her father s gates
Riding up to her father s gates, show your legs to the countryman, i don t want your house and land
i don t want your gold and silver
mary of the golden hair
My fine my fine daughter, oh step it out
you will do as i command
her eyes shine like diamonds
