dubliners – step it out mary lyrics
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`ve 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 mary 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
