Till death do we part

Young little Mary-Ann

Had the whole world in the palm of her hands.

Had a countenance of gold

And hadn't a heart of mould

Young little Mary-Ann was beautiful

But poor Mary-Ann

Fell in love with the wrong man

"I love you," he told her

"But I need a favour."

Mary-Ann gave him the gold and silver

Even her precious jewels

But he ran away

And married another woman

As Mary-Ann waited for his return

She started to suffer in silence

She had developed an illness

But she still waited for the foolish man's return

As Mary-Ann died

From the lack of her treasures

And of a broken heart

She wrote

To my lover

Who has all my silver

I'll still be waiting

Forever and ever

So with that Mary-Ann departed

She slipped into a world

With the simple words "to death do us part"

Stuck at her lips.
