“Mary Don’t You Weep” by Mike Farris
Well if I could I surely would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood, singing
Pharaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary don’t you weepWell Mary wore 3 links of chain
on every link was a Jesus’ name sayin’
Pharaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary don’t you weepO Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn
O Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn, singing
Pharaoh’s army get drownded
Oh, Mary, don’t you weepWell one of these nights around 12 o’clock
this old world is gonna really rock, singing
Pharaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary don’t you weepWell Moses stood on the Red Sea shore
And smote the water with a two by four, singing
Pharaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary don’t you weepO Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn
O Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn, singing
Pharaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary, don’t you weepWell, old Man Satan he done got mad
Lost that soul that he thought he done had, singing
Pharaoh’s army get drownded
O Mary, don’t you weepBrothers and sisters now don’t you cry
they’ll be good times by and by, singing
Pharaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary don’t you weepO Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn
O Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn
Pharaoh’s army get drownded
O Mary, don’t you weepGod gave Noah that rainbow sign
Said, “No more water, but fire next time,” singing
Prahaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary don’t you weepO Mary don’t you weep, don’t mourn
O Mary don’t weep, don’t mourn
Pharaoh’s army got drownded
O Mary don’t weep
