A Song for Mary Songtext
von Dean Ford

Come with me through the field of the foals
By farmer Davy′s land
Me and Mary, facing the cold
Walking hand in hand
Oh, send me home

I can remember the old canal
Where a dead dog lay
And I can still recall
How we danced in the hall
At the school one day


Oh, Mary, you were so sweet
Oh, Mary, you were so wonderful to me

At the church on Sunday
We sang harmony and gave praise to him
Oh, yes, we would

By a cool Siloam's shady rill
How sweet, the lily grows
How sweet the breath, beneath the hill
Of Sharon′s dewy rose
Oh, send me home

Oh, Mary, you were so sweet
Oh, Mary, you were so wonderful to me


Come with me down Anderson Street
And I will show you home
