paroles de chanson Step It Out Mary - The Dubliners

In the village of Kildorey
There lived a maiden fair
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
She had long and golden hair
And a countryman came riding
Up to her father's gate
Mounted on a milk white stallion
He came at the stroke of eight

Chorus:
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 coutryman

"I've come to court your daughter
Mary of the golden hair
I have wealth and i have money
I have goods beyond compare
I will buy her silks and satins
And a gold ring for her hand
I'll build for her a mansion
She'll have servants to command

Chorus

"Oh kind sir I love a soldier
I've pledged to him my hand
I don't want your wealth nor money
I don't want your goods nor land"
Mary's father spoke her sharply
"You will do as you are told
You'll be married on next Sunday
And you'll wear the ring of gold"

Chorus

In the village of Kildorey
There's a deep stream running by
They found Mary there at midnight
She drowned with the soldier boy
In the cottage there is music
You can hear the father say
"Step It Out Mary my fine daughter
Sunday is your wedding day"
