Insolent girl Wicked girl How stupid and silly you are! Don’t talk back to me girl Turn your back to me girl It is I who chooses when to look from behind. She’s a Harlet, a ***** A temptress, scarlet rag. With no clothes, no prows, No ears, nor rose, what man would grant you his horse? You went away, you played You stole then stayed And now with your fellows you swing on the gallows stage. Oh Mary what have you done? Look upon the faces of those you took from, And followers, boys, so young. So short is life’s string No more song will you sing Just dancing in the company of crows.

Silly Mary
