Mary And Joseph |
Mary was the first of three |
Long black hair and sugar sweet |
Daddy’s eyes and Momma’s crooked smile |
She was barely seventeen |
Got a job keepin' dishes clean |
Planned to stay in this city for a while |
For a while |
Joseph ran a lumber yard |
About a mile from Olive park |
Quiet boy, he never had much to say |
It was love right from the start |
He bought a ring and won Mary’s heart |
Had hopes for a home and kids someday |
Kids someday |
The angel scared her half to death |
She would’ve screamed but she lost her breath |
On a midnight there in the middle of May |
He said «Oh Mary, don’t be afraid |
You’ll bear a son that the Lord has made |
Name him Jesus, He’ll light the way» |
She packed the clothes, he made the plans |
They had to go to Bethlehem |
But there was nowhere left to stay |
So in a barn she gave birth |
To the King of Kings, the Lord of Earth |
Just a little bitty thing sleeping on the hay |
Sleeping on the hay |
The story’s too long to tell |
But He walked on water and lived through hell |
Killed on a cross and rose from the grave |
We got a King, they got a Son |
Mary and Joseph were the only ones |
There on that very first Christmas day |
There on that very first Christmas day |
