Mary Says
Sad tipsy Mary, look there she stands
A moonshine guidebook in her hands
That's all what Roland did leave behind
He died of booze, was almost blind
Under a cherry tree the pastor held his eulogy
His voice was slurring, what a mess
A trusted recipe, that's all that he gave to me Mary says
Roland was a smuggler, when he was young
And Mary loved him quite a lot
With deep, dark humour and highly strung
They went to church to tie the knot
Under that cherry tree not far from a cemetery
They all got drunk, what a blast
Let's raise a family, to start a smuggler's dynasty Mary says
Under a cherry tree the pastor held his eulogy
