Mary

Wake up, wake up, little Mary Yes, there'll be a fine white cake, flowers for your hair And you will see Aunt Julie Ann, no I won't be there Throw the rice, dance and sing, have a real good time If anybody asks, say I'm doing fine Wake up, wake up, little Mary There is no time to play 'Cause it's your mother's wedding day Yes I'll always be your father, no your name won't change And you will always have this room that will stay the same Pretty soon it will be Christmas, we can buy a tree And you can always call from Tennessee Wake up, wake up, my little Mary There is no time to play 'Cause it's your mother's wedding day Your mother and me we were only twenty On that beautiful spring morn It was a fine day, a loving memory But nothing like the day that you were born
