The High Kings - Step It Out Mary lyrics

(Chorus) (So) 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 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 Kilgory, there's a maiden young and fair Her eyes shine like diamonds, she has long and golden hair The horseman, he comes riding, riding up to her father's gates On a pure-white stallion, and he comes at the strike of eight (Chorus) I have come to court your daughter, Mary of the golden hair I have gold and I have silver, I have goods beyond compare I will buy her silks and satins and a gold ring for her hand She shall have a mansion, she'll have servants to command (Chorus) "I don't want your gold and silver, I don't want your house and land I am in love with a soldier, I have promised him my hand" But the father spoke up sharply: "You will do as I command, You'll get married on a Sunday and you'll wear that wedding band" (So) 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 Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter Step it out, Mary, if you can Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter Show your legs In the village of Kilgory there's a deep stream flowing by In on her wedding day at midnight she drowns with her soldier boy In the cottage there is music, you can hear her father say: "Oh step it out, Mary, (my fine) my fine daughter, Sunday is your wedding day Sunday is your wedding day, Sunday is your wedding day" (Refrain X3) Step it out, step it out, step it out, step it out Step it out, step it out, step it out, step it out Step it out, step it out, step it out, step it out Step it out, Mary (If you can) (Chorus X2)
