Tania Kernaghan - Mary Called Him Mister lyrics

They parted but a year before she never thought he'd come She stammered blushed hel;d out her hand and called him Mister Gum How could he know that all the while she onged to murmur John He called her Miss Le Brook and asked how she was gettingon They parted but a year before they loved each other well But he'd been to the city and came back such a swell They longed to meet in fone embrace they hungerered for a kiss But Mary called him Mister and the farm boy called her Miss He stood and leaned against the door a stupid chap was he And when she aske if he'd come in and have a cup of tea He looked to left he looked to right and then he glanced behind And slowly doffed that hat of his and said he didn't mind She glanced at him at times and coughed and awkward little cough He stared at anything but her and said I must be off That evenning he went riding north a sad and lonely ride She locked herself inside her rrom and sat down there and cried They parted but a year before they loved each other well But she was such a contry girl and he was such a swell They longed to meet in fone embrace they hungerered for a kiss But Mary called him Mister and the farm boy called her Miss Mary called him Mister and the far boy called her Miss
