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
A horseman he comes riding, riding up to her father's gates
On a pure white stallion and he comes at the strike of eight

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

I've come to court your daughter, Mary of the golden hair
I've gold and I have silver, I have goods beyond compare
I'll buy her silks and satins and a gold ring for her hand
She shall have a mansion, she'll have servants to command

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

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
And 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 daughter (my fine daughter)
Sunday is your wedding day
Sunday is your wedding day
Sunday is your wedding day

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
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

Step it out Mary
Step it out Mary
Step it out Mary
If you can

Oh, step it out Mary
Oh, step it out Mary
Step it out Mary
If you can

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

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
