I went down to see lonesome Mary, she was a-sitting all alone,    she was 
D                          C       G    D
a-crying for the contrariness that made a desert of her home,          she 
was 
D
a-weeping and a-wailing, you know she does it everyday,         I said 
D                        C        G       D
