以下是Mary's Boy Child的歌詞：
Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go
He followed her to school one day
Which was against the rule
But the teacher did not scold him
Because helaughed and played with him
Mary's boy child is very dear to me
And I'm sure he'll grow up to be a fine young man
It won't be long before I hold him in my arms again
The bells of St.Mary's pealed for my son
So the children went to school one morning
The sky was blue as you can see
Mary kissed her boy goodbye and then she set off for school
And as she left for school she knew that in time
Her baby would return with a big grin and so would I.
Now as he grew, and got on in years
And took his way to work outside of town,
When I first heard, a fellow roamed, a hound and soon my name was told
and there it was my baby boy standing there with his arms outstretched
Oh, how I missed my little boy, oh, how I cried for joy!
Oh, what a blessed sight it was when he hugged me tight
Oh, what a happy day that was for me and my son.
Now, he's a father himself, with a little one of his own,
And Mary's boy child is my grandson too.
Oh, Mary's boy child, he is still dear to me,
And I know he'll grow up to be a fine young man.
And when I hold him in my arms again, it won't be long,
For he's always on my mind.
Mary's boy child.
