Sorry the Day I Was Married

Sorry The Day I Was Married - The Johnstons

Sorry the day I was married

And sorry the day I was wed

And it's Oh if I only had tarried

When I to the altar was led

Young William sure there's no pleasing

I'm let women do what they can

For It's always your heart they'll be teasing

For that is the way of a man

When I was a young I was mary

And so silks and jewels to wear

And red that me cheeks were like berries

Me heart it was free from all care

Think pretty maids ere you marry

Stand fast by your dearly liberty

And as long as you can you must tarry

And not be lamenting like me

Sorry the day I was married

And sorry the day I was wed

And it's Oh if I only had tarried

When I to the altar was led
