Marie’s Wedding (lyrics)
Chorus
Step we gaily on we go,
Heel for heel and toe for toe,
Arm in arm and row and row,
All for Marie’s wedding.
Verses
Over hillways up and down,
Myrtle green and bracken brown,
Past the sheiling through the town,
All for Marie’s wedding.
Red her cheeks as rowans are,
Bright her eye as any star,
Fairest o’ them all by far
Is our darling Marie.
Plenty herring plenty meal,
Plenty peat to fill her creel,
Plenty bonnie bairns as weel,
Thats’ the toast for Marie.
