In the village of Kildory
There's a maiden young an fair
Her eyes they shone like diamonds
She had long and golden hair
When the country-man came riding
He came to the farmers gate
Riding on a milk-White stallion
He came at the stroke of eight

Step it out Mary my fine daughter
Step it out Mary if you can
Step it out Mary my fine daughter
Show your leg to the country man

I have come to court your daughter
Mary of the golden hair
I have wealth and I have money
I have goods beyond compare
I will buy her silk and satins
and a gold ring for her hand
I will build for her a mansion
She'll have servants to Command

Step it out Mary my fine daughter...

But kind Sir I love a soldier
I have pledged to him my hand
I don't want your house nor money
I don' want your goods nor Land
Mary's father spoke of sharply
You will do as you are told
You'll be married on this Sunday
You will wear the ring of gold

Step it out Mary my fine daughter...

In the village of Kildory
There's a Deep stream running by
They found Mary there at midnight
She drowned with her soldier boy
In the cottage there is music
You can hear her father say
Step it out Mary my fine daughter
Sunday is your wedding day

Step it out Mary my fine daughter...
