Mary won't you come out of yonder tree.
Mary 'cause I want you down here with me.
See, I know the place with the good fried chicken,
with biscuits and gravy and all the fixings.

I said Mary, don't you wanna?
Mary, won't you come with me?

Mary, don't you hide under all the books?
Small little girl with the bad good looks
See, I know the place with the good fried chicken,
with biscuits and gravy and all the fixings.

I said Mary, don't you wanna?
Mary, won't you come with me?

Mary-Mary, don't freak that Boogaloo...
Mary-Mary, don't freak it no more...
