lyrics


MARRY MY BABY

Just like a pearl, like a tiny pearl,
gave the world my only girl.

When, like a flash, they grow up that fast.
Later mama, later dad.

Will no man marry my baby?
Will no man marry my girl?
Will no man marry my baby?
My baby, my baby girl.

Lost in the wash of the dating sea,
swallowing poison, hiding a seam.
Good girls do as Simon says.
Children robbing robins nests.

Will no man marry my baby?
Will no man marry my girl?
Will no man marry my baby?
My baby girl, my baby, baby girl.

Swear when she smiles that I see my dad,
I hear her mother in that laugh.

Clear as a bell ringing for my hopes
buried in a heart-shaped hole.

Then, in a flash, we too shall pass.
Goodbye mama, goodbye dad.

Will no man marry my baby?
Will no man marry my girl?
Will no man marry my baby?
Will no man marry my girl?
My baby, my baby girl.
