Mary Mac - Carbon Leaf

There’s a neat little lass and her name is Mary Mac

Make no mistake, she’s the girl I’m gonna track

Lot of other fellas want to get up on her back

But I think they’re gonna have to get up early

Mary Mac’s mother’s making Mary Mac marry me

My mother’s making me marry Mary Mac

Well I’m going to marry Mary for when Mary’s taking care of me

We’ll all be feeling merry when I marry Mary Mac

Kaiyut-little-ottle-eetle-ottle-eetle-um

This wee little lass she has a lot of class

She has a lot of brass and her mother thinks I’m gas

I be a silly ass if I let the matter pass

But her mother thinks she suits me rather fairly

Now Mary and her mother gang an awful lot together

In fact you hardly see the one without the other

And the lads often wonder if it’s Mary or her mother

Or the both of them together that I’m courtin'

I said, well bonnie lass, where you gonna spend the day?

She said, among the heather and the hills of Banoffee

Where all the boys and girls are makin' it for free

Up among the heather and the hills of Banoffee

The wedding’s on Wednesday, everything’s arranged

Soon her name will change to mine unless her mind be changed

I’m makin' the arrangements and I feel a bit deranged

For marriage is an awful undertakin'

It’s sure to be a grand affair and grander than a fair

There’s gonna be a coach and pair for every couple there

We’ll dine upon the finest fare, I’m sure to get my share

If I don’t I’m very much mistaken

There’s a wee little lass and her name is Mary Mac

Make no mistake, she’s the girl I’m gonna track

Lots of other fellas want to get up on her back

But I think they’re gonna have to get up early
