Mary, Mary

Mary, Mary

Mary, Mary, where yall be
Behind the shed I see
Sitting on a bucket
Two shakes and blow
Snakes eyes rolls

Mary, Mary, where yall  be
Gosh darn, dang it
Wrestling with Billy
over a piece of watermelon
One lick to the eye
cheek swell , black eye

Mary, Mary, where yall  be
I havn’t got a lick of work out of yall
dern tootin,  when I gits yall ,
Yall find yourself in a heap of trouble
Yall britches won’t have
a Sears and  Roebuck book
