Lyrics
Come down and open the door, when mary came wandering home with a child
Or the child in my arms will perish and die, when mary came wandering home with a child
the old man passed away
how the old man must have felt
There mary died, or the child in my arms will perish and die
where the willows grew over the door
When mary came wandering home with a child, how the old man must have felt, once the gay village bride
Once the gay village bride, there mary died Louvin, when mary came wandering home with a child
When mary came wandering home with a child, there mary died
To it s mother, it was on one cold winter night, come down and open the door
When he came to the door the next morn, when he came to the door the next morn
when he came to the door the next morn
not a sound of a voice did he hear
And the child, when mary came wandering home with a child
or the child in my arms will perish and die
till she came to her own father s door
So the watchdog did howl and the village bells tolled, lives there to this day
it was on one cold winter night
closely grasping its dead mother s arms
Come down and open the door, but her father was deaf to her cry, when mary came wandering home with a child
And the cottage, dear father, she cried, when mary came wandering home with a child
Or the child in my arms will perish and die, it was on one cold winter night
But the villagers point out the spot, how the old man must have felt, there mary died
Till she came to her own father s door, dear father, she cried, come down and open the door
From the wind that blow across the wild moor, or the child in my arms will perish and die
or the child in my arms will perish and die
There mary died, lives there to this day
Not a sound of a voice did he hear, not a sound of a voice did he hear
So the watchdog did howl and the village bells tolled, it was on one cold winter night
not a sound of a voice did he hear
from the winds that blow across the wild moor.
And the cottage, and the wind blew across the wild moor Moor, but her father was deaf to her cry
So the watchdog did howl and the village bells tolled, from the wind that blow across the wild moor the, but the villagers point out the spot
Lives there to this day, when the wind blew across the wild moor
But her father was deaf to her cry, to it s mother, how the old man must have felt
But her father was deaf to her cry, the old man passed away, from the wind that blow across the wild moor
And the child, and he found mary dead but the child still alive, once the gay village bride
and the wind blew across the wild moor
and the child
Lives there to this day, to it s mother The, and the wind blew across the wild moor
And the cottage, come down and open the door Mary, not a sound of a voice did he hear
Where the willows grew over the door, when the wind blew across the wild moor
When he came to the door the next morn, and the wind blew across the wild moor
And he found mary dead but the child still alive, dear father, she cried
Till she came to her own father s door, and the wind blew across the wild moor
and the child
But the villagers point out the spot, not a sound of a voice did he hear
There mary died, how the old man must have felt, come down and open the door
so the watchdog did howl and the village bells tolled
