Step it on, Mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter,
Show your legs to the country man.
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 country man.
In the village of Kilcordie,
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 the farthest 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 quilter -in -man
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 quilter -in -man
I've come to court your daughter
I've gold and I have silver
I have good beyond compare
I'll buy her silks and satins
And a gold ring for her hand
She'll have ser vants 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 goodly
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 in my hand
But the father spoke him sharply
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, critical fever
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter,
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter,
In the village of Kilgore
there's a deep stream flowing by in honour
she drowns with her soldier boy
In the cottage there is music,
you can hear her father say
I'll step it and marry my fine,
Sunday is your wedding day
Step it up, Mary, step it up, Mary,
step it up, Mary, if you can
Step it up, Mary, step it up, Mary,
step it up, Mary, if you can
Step it up, Mary, my fine daughter,
step it up, Mary, if you can
Step it up, Mary, my fine daughter,
show your legs to the country man
Step it up, Mary, my fine daughter,
step it up, Mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter,
show your legs to the good, good,
