The Cats — Little Miss Mary lyrics

Lyrics

Hey there, little miss Mary
Don’t be contrary
I only wanna be friends with you
Come out of your garden, into my yard
And there’s a lot of cultivation to do For me and you
If you might tell you go Baby, don’t be slow
Cause loving takes a little time to grow
Hey there, little miss Mary
You only grab what you show
Hey, there little miss Mary
You’re so contrary
When boy is always trying to be nice
Your flowers ain’t growing
Ain’t nothing showing
To keep us two from breaking the ice
I’ve told you twice
If you might tell you go, baby, don’t be slow
Cause loving takes a little time to grow
Mary, Mary, why contrary?
How does your garden grow
With silver bells and cockle shells
Girl, you got to tell me it’s yes or no Hey there, little miss Mary
You only grab what you show
(break)
I’ve told you twice
If you might tell you go, baby, don’t be slow
Cause loving takes a little time to grow
Hey there, little miss Mary
You only grab what you show
You only grab what you show, oh yeah
You only grab what you show
