Well I know a little girl
Her name is Mary Mac
Make no mistake she’s a girl I can attract
There’s lots of other fellows trying to get up on her track
But I’m thinking that they’ll have to get up early

Mary Mac’s father’s making Mary Mac marry me
My father’s making me marry Mary Mac
I’ve got to marry Mary if I want Mary to take care of me
We’ll all be making merry when I marry Mary Mac

Well this little lass
She’s got a lot of class
She’s got a lot of brass
Father thinks that I’m a gas
I’d be a silly ass
If I let the matter pass
Father thinks I should be rather faring

Mary Mac’s father’s making Mary Mac marry me
My father’s making me marry Mary Mac
I’ve got to marry Mary if I want Mary to take care of me
We’ll all be making merry when I marry Mary Mac

Well Mary and her mother go an awful lot together
In fact you rarely ever see the one without the other
And there’s lots of people wonder if it’s Mary or her mother
Or the two of them together that I’m courting

Mary Mac’s father’s making Mary Mac marry me
My father’s making me marry Mary Mac
I’ve got to marry Mary if I want Mary to take care of me
We’ll all be making merry when I marry Mary Mac

We’ll marry on a Monday when everything’s arranged
We’re looking for a place, final list that might be changed
We’re making all the ‘rangements, just about the range
Marriage is an awful undertaking

Mary Mac’s father’s making Mary Mac marry me
My father’s making me marry Mary Mac
I’ve got to marry Mary if I want Mary to take care of me
We’ll all be making merry when I marry Mary Mac

It will be a grand affair
Grander than a fair
With a coach and a horse made for everyone is there
We’ll dine on the fairest fare
I’m sure to get my share
If you doubt you surely are mistaken

Mary Mac’s father’s making Mary Mac marry me
My father’s making me marry Mary Mac
I’ve got to marry Mary if I want Mary to take care of me
We’ll all be making merry when I marry Mary Mac
