Devilish Mary - Odetta[00:00:00]
I one dressed up and went to town[00:00:00]
To court a fair young lady [00:00:04]
When I inquired about her name [00:00:09]
Her name was Devilish Mary [00:00:12]
Chorus:[00:00:16]
Come fa la ling come ling come [00:00:16]
Fa la ling come day [00:00:18]
Fa la ling come ling come [00:00:20]
Fa la ling come day [00:00:21]
When me and Mary began to spark [00:00:23]
She got in a hurry [00:00:24]
Made it all up in her mind [00:00:27]
She'd marry me next Thursday [00:00:28]
(Chorus)[00:00:30]
Hadn't been married for about two weeks [00:00:40]
Before we oughta been parted [00:00:41]
Hadn't said one single word [00:00:44]
She'd kicked up her heels and started [00:00:46]
(Chorus)[00:00:49]
One day I said to Mary [00:00:56]
"Think we ought to be parted "[00:00:59]
And just as soon as I said the word [00:01:01]
She packed all her clothes and started [00:01:04]
(Chorus)[00:01:12]
She washed my clothes in old soap suds [00:01:15]
And filled up my bathtub with switches [00:01:18]
She let me know right from the start[00:01:19]
She was gonna wear my britches [00:01:22]
(Chorus)[00:01:24]
Now if I ever marry again [00:01:31]
It'll be for love not riches [00:01:32]
Marry a little girl about two feet high [00:01:36]
And she can't wear my britches [00:01:38]
(Chorus)[00:01:40]
