Smiling Mary Lyrics

I met her very early, when the morning, it was new
I gave to her a flower that was fresh and wet with dew
She took that flower graciously and pinned it to her
breast
And I know that smiling Mary was the one I loved the
best
Chorus:
Have you seen smiling Mary come tripping through the
town?
Have you seen her two eyes dancing and the ringlets
hanging down?
She's the queen of all the land and she never wears a
frown

Have you seen smiling Mary come tripping through the
town?
The gentle april showers, they will bring the flowers in May
The rose, it won't start blooming 'til it finds a
warmer day
Of all the flowers I have seen, there's none that can
compare
With my charming smiling Mary and her shining yellow
hair
Chorus
If I could find a rainbow, I would make for her a gown
If I could catch the morning star, I'd make for her a
crown
I'd climb the highest mountain and I'd swim the deepest
sea
Just to be with smiling Mary and to have her smile on
me
Chorus
