No. 16 - Song - Lady Violet and Chorus - "Little Mary."
| Lady Violet: | There's a certain little lady
who's already known to fame As Little Mary, |
| Chorus: | As Little Mary, |
| Lady Violet: | Though she may not be romantic,
yet it's such a pretty name, Is Little Mary, |
| Chorus: | Is Little Mary. |
| Lady Violet: | Now I want you all to know her When I mention her again, But exactly who she is it isn't easy to explain. Let me merely say that baby often has a tiny pain In Little Mary, |
| Chorus: | In Little Mary. |
| Lady Violet: | Mary! Mary! Dainty little Mary! She's a fickle but a fascinating fairy. So if baby boy should cry, And you want to find out why, Please enquire of Little Mary. |
| Chorus: | Mary! Mary! Dainty little Mary! She's a fickle but a fascinating fairy. So if baby boy should cry, And you want to find out why, Please enquire of Little Mary. |
| Lady Violet: | !'ve a jolly sort of uncle
who is rather old and stout, It's all thro' Mary, |
| Chorus: | Thro' Little Mary, |
| Lady Violet: | And the only girl he takes with him
whenever he goes out Is Little Mary, |
| Chorus: | Is Little Mary. |
| Lady Violet: | Now he doesn't buy her diamonds
or silly things like that, And he never goes and purchases a pretty Paris hat. But he drives her to a restaurant, And, Oh! she's getting fat, Is Little Mary, |
| Chorus: | Is Little Mary. |
| Lady Violet: | Mary! Mary! Dainty little Mary! She's a fickle but a fascinating fairy. And my Uncle, with a sigh, Says he'll live for her or die, He's so fond of Little Mary. |
| Chorus: | Mary! Mary! Dainty little Mary! She's a fickle but a fascinating fairy. And my Uncle, with a sigh, Says he'll live for her or die, He's so fond of Little Mary. |
| Lady Violet: | Now mamma is very delicate,
as anyone can see, Because of Mary! |
| Chorus: | Of Little Mary! |
| Lady Violet: | And it's not her fault she's given up
her coffee and her tea, It's Little Mary! |
| Chorus: | It's Little Mary! |
| Lady Violet: | When we came across the other day
the sun was nice and hot, And I quite enjoy'd the journey, tho' the steamer roll'd a lot; But mamma lay down and murmur'd "Oh, I wish I hadn't got A Little Mary." |
| Chorus: | A Little Mary. |
| Lady Violet: | Mary! Mary! Dainty little Mary! She's a fickle but a fascinating fairy. When you're crossing o'er the Channel, you must wrap her up in flannel; Oh, take care of Little Mary. |
| Chorus: | Mary! Mary! Dainty little Mary! She's a fickle but a fascinating fairy. When you're crossing o'er the Channel, you must wrap her up in flannel; Oh, take care of Little Mary. |
