Chorus: Step a gaily on we go heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm and arm and row on row all for Mary's wedding.
Over hill ways up and down; Myrtle green and bracken brown,
Past the shielings thru the town the town; all for sake of Mary.
cho.
Red her cheeks as Rowans are bright her eye as any star,
Fairest of them all by far;that's our darling Mary!
cho.
Plenty Herring,plenty Meal,plenty peat to fill her creel,
Plenty bonnie bairns as well that's our toast for Mary.
