Step It out Mary (original)

Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out, mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman (x2)
In the village of Kilgory, there’s a maiden young and fair
Her eyes shine like diamonds, she has long and golden hair
The horseman he comes riding, riding up to her father’s gates
On a milk-white stallion, he comes at the strike of eight.
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out, mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman (x2)
I have come to court your daughter, Mary of the golden hair
I have gold and I have silver, I have goods beyond compare
I will buy her silks and satin and a gold ring for her hand
She shall have a mansion, she’ll have servants to command
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out, mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman (x2)
I don’t want your gold and silver, I don’t want your house and land
I am going with a soldier, I have promised him my hand
But the father spoke up sharply: You will do as i command,
You’ll get married on a Sunday and you’ll wear that wedding band
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out, mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman (x2)
In the village of Kilgory there’s a deep stream flowing by
On her wedding day at midnight she drowns with her soldier boy
In the cottage there is music, you can hear her father say:
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter, Sunday is your wedding day.
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Step it out, mary, if you can
Step it out, Mary, my fine daughter
Show your legs to the countryman (x4)

(traducción)

Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Sal, Mary, si puedes
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Enséñale las piernas al paisano (x2)
En el pueblo de Kilgory, hay una doncella joven y hermosa
Sus ojos brillan como diamantes, tiene el pelo largo y dorado.
El jinete que viene cabalgando, cabalgando hasta las puertas de su padre
Sobre un semental blanco como la leche, llega a las ocho.
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Sal, Mary, si puedes
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Enséñale las piernas al paisano (x2)
He venido a cortejar a tu hija, María de los cabellos de oro
Tengo oro y tengo plata, tengo bienes incomparables
Le compraré sedas y satén y un anillo de oro para su mano.
Tendrá una mansión, tendrá sirvientes para mandar
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Sal, Mary, si puedes
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Enséñale las piernas al paisano (x2)
No quiero tu oro y tu plata, no quiero tu casa y tu tierra
Voy con un soldado, le he prometido mi mano
Pero el padre habló con dureza: Harás lo que te mando,
Te casarás un domingo y usarás ese anillo de bodas
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Sal, Mary, si puedes
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Enséñale las piernas al paisano (x2)
En el pueblo de Kilgory hay un arroyo profundo que fluye
El día de su boda a medianoche se ahoga con su hijo soldado
En la cabaña hay música, se escucha a su padre decir:
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija, el domingo es el día de tu boda.
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Sal, Mary, si puedes
Sal, Mary, mi hermosa hija
Enséñale las piernas al paisano (x4)
