A field recording from an unknown band recorded singing “Mary Don’t You Weep” shot in the 1920’s.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t weep
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
I done told you once, I done told you twice,
You can’t get to heaven without a sweetheart and a wife,
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
God made man and he made him out of clay,
Put him on the earth but not to stay,
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
I done told you once, I told you twice,
Find yourself in hell for shootin’ dice,
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
I done told you once, I done told you twice,
You can’t get to heaven without a sweetheart and a wife,
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep, don’t you mourn.
Pharaoh’s army got drowned-ed.
Oh, Mary, don’t you weep.
