Mary, sweet Mary
Oh Mary, sweet Mary
Oh Mary, sweet Mary
Oh Mary, sweet Mary
Nineteen hundred and twenty-three,
When the judge took my liberty away from me
In nineteen hundred and twenty-three,
When the judge took my liberty away from me
I left my wife wringin' her hands and cryin',
Sayin', "Lord have mercy on that man of mine"
I left my wife wringin' her hands and cryin',
Sayin', "Lord have mercy on that man of mine"
Told my wife before I left the land,
If I never no more see her do the best she can
I told my wife before I left the land,
If I never no more see her do the best she can
Goodbye, Mary, ooh ooh ooh
Oh Mary, ooh ooh ooh
Had the Governor Neff like you got me,
I'd a-wake up in the mornin', I'd set you free
If I had the Governor Neff like you got me,
I'd a-wake up in the mornin', I would set you free
Goin' back to Mary, sweet Mary
Oh Mary
