Marie's Wedding

(Lilting)



(Chorus)

Step we gaily, on we go

Heel for heel and toe for toe

Arm in arm and row in row

All for Marie's wedding



Repeat Chorus



Over hillways up and down

Myrtle green and bracken brown

Past the sheeling, through the town

All for sake of Marie



Chorus



Red her cheeks as rowans are

Bright her eyes as any star

Fairest of them all by far

Is our darling Marie



Chorus (twice)



Plenty herring, plenty meal

Plenty peat to fill her creel

Plenty bonny bairns as well

That's the toast for Marie



Chorus (six times)
