Little Mary Phagan
She went to town one day
She went to the pencil factory
To get her little pay
She left her home at seven
She kissed her mother goodbye
Not one time did the poor child
Think that she was going to die
Then a villain met her
With a brutal heart, we know
He smiled and said, "Little Mary
You'll go home no more"
He sneaked along behind her
'Til she reached the metal room
He laughed and said, "Little Mary
You've met your fatal doom"
Newt Lee was the watchman
And when he wound the key
A-way down in the basement
Little Mary he could see
He called for the policemen
Their names, I do not know
They came to the pencil factory
And told Newt he must go
Her mother took to weeping
She weeps and mourns all day
She prays to meet her baby
In a better world someday
Just long past the sitting
You bet he did not fail
Solicitor Hugh Dorsey
He sent the brute to jail
Astonished at the question
The angel they did say
Why he killed poor Mary
Upon one holiday
Now come all you good people
Wherever you may be
The poor thing, little Mary
Belonged to you or me
