Sweet Marie

Sweet Marie (甜蜜的玛丽) - John Roche

I've a little racin' mare called Sweet Marie

And the temper of a bear has Sweet Marie

But I've backed the mare to win

And on her I've all my tin

So we'll take a trial spin Sweet Marie

Hould your hoult Sweet Marie

If you bolt Sweet Marie

Sure you'll never win the Farmers' Cup for me

And if you don't pull it through

Faith I'm done and so are you

For I'll trade you off for glue Sweet Marie

Now the colours that I chose for Sweet Marie

Were lavender and rose for Sweet Marie

Och but now no thanks to you

Sure I'm quite another hue

For I'm onIy black and blue Sweet Marie

Hould your hoult Sweet Marie

If you bolt Sweet Marie

Sure you'll never win the Farmers' Cup for me

Every daisy in the dell

Ought to know me mighty well

For on every one I fell Sweet Marie

Now we're started for the Cup my Sweet Marie

Weight for age and owners up my Sweet Marie

Owners up just now I own

But the way you're waltzing roun'

Sure 'twill soon be owners down Sweet Marie

Hould your hould Sweet Marie

Pass the colt Sweet Marie

Och you've gone and lost the Farmers' Cup for me

You're a stayer too I find

But you're not the proper kind

For you stay too far behind Sweet Marie
