Step It Out Mary Lyrics

In the village of Kildori

There's a maiden young and fair

Her eyes they shone like diamonds

She had lovely golden hair

When the country man 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

Marry if you can

Mary my fine daughter

Show your legs to the wealthy man

"I've come to court your daughter

Mary of the golden hair

I have land and I have money

I have goods beyond compare

I'll buy her silk and satin

And a gold ring for her hand

I'll build for her a mansion

She'll have servants to command."

Chorus

"But sir I love a soldier,

I've pledged to him my hand.

I don't want your goods nor money

I won't have your house nor land."

But her father spoke up sharply

"You will do as you are told.

You'll be married on this Sunday

And you'll wear his ring of gold."

Chorus

In the village of Kildori

There's a deep stream running by

They found Mary there at midnight

She drowned her soldier boy

In the cottage there was music

You can hear her father say

"Step it out Mary, my fine daughter

You know it's the wedding day."

Chorus
