Tania Kernaghan - Mary Called Him Mister lyrics

They parted but a year before she never thought he'd come

She stammered blushed hel;d out her hand and called him Mister Gum

How could he know that all the while she onged to murmur John

He called her Miss Le Brook and asked how she was gettingon

They parted but a year before they loved each other well

But he'd been to the city and came back such a swell

They longed to meet in fone embrace they hungerered for a kiss

But Mary called him Mister and the farm boy called her Miss

He stood and leaned against the door a stupid chap was he

And when she aske if he'd come in and have a cup of tea

He looked to left he looked to right and then he glanced behind

And slowly doffed that hat of his and said he didn't mind

She glanced at him at times and coughed and awkward little cough

He stared at anything but her and said I must be off

That evenning he went riding north a sad and lonely ride

She locked herself inside her rrom and sat down there and cried

They parted but a year before they loved each other well

But she was such a contry girl and he was such a swell

They longed to meet in fone embrace they hungerered for a kiss

But Mary called him Mister and the farm boy called her Miss

Mary called him Mister and the far boy called her Miss
