[Verse 1] Goodbye Mary, I must go Where I'm bound I don’t know Here's a ticket and my mother's golden ring Golden ring, ring Here’s a ticket and my mother's golden ring [Verse 2] Oh, Thomas, you're a liar You betray me with desire You promised to build a rocker soon A rocker soon, soon You promised to build a cradle soon [Verse 3] Worried Mary, rest your head Take the train like I said Change in Scottsville for the old Red River Line River line, line Change in Scottsville for the old Rеd River Line [Verse 4] Damn you, Thomas and the rеst It's more than distress The doctor says the baby's too far along Too far along, 'long The doctor says the baby's too far along [Verse 5] Weary Mary, don't despair If you should stumble on the stairs Or ride careless down the rocky road The rocky road, road Ride careless down the rocky road [Verse 6] I’ve tried all but in vain Wicked Thomas, curse your name But in the old toolshed there is a wire There is a wire, wire In the old toolshed there is a wire [Verse 7] Dearest Mary, now I write I’ve heard of your plight I'll pray every day upon your soul For your soul I’ll pray every day upon your soul [Verse 8] Dearest Thomas, from my cell I'm calmed down, but please will You put pretty flowers on her grave? On her grave, grave Put pretty flowers on her grave Will you put pretty flowers on her grave?
