I've been working hard, trying to make a dollar, listening to my boss man holler, tonight I'll be on the bank of the river, waiting for the sun to go down, singing, Mary, Mary, roll your boat down,
come on and bring me on home now, I'm gonna love you, Lord, I'm gonna kiss you, Mary, Mary, roll your boat,
Mary is a boss man holler, she loves me, but she lives upon the water, she's so pretty, Lord, she's mine, that's why I sing a song of mine,
Mary, Mary, roll your boat down, come on and bring me on home now, I'm gonna love you, Lord, I'm gonna kiss you, Mary, Mary, roll your boat,
I've got plans and I'm gonna keep them, the arms are red, but I'm gonna be moving and sleeping safe for my money,
Mary, Mary, roll your, Mary, Mary, roll your boat down, come on and bring me on home now, I'm gonna love you, Lord, I'm gonna kiss you,
I've got plans and I'm gonna kiss you, Mary, Mary, roll your, Mary, Mary, roll your boat,
Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary,
Merry, merry, merry, merry, merry, merry.
