Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]When Joseph was an old man,
an old man was he
He courted Virgin Mary,
the queen of Galilee
He courted Virgin Mary,
the queen of Galilee

[Verse 2]
When [G]Joseph and Mary
were walking one day
Here is apples and cherries
so fair to behold
Here is apples and cherries

[Verse 3]
so fair to behold
[G]Then Mary spoke to Joseph so
meek and so [D]mild
[G]"Joseph, gather me some cherries
for I am with child"
"Oh Joseph, gather me some
cherries for I am with child"

[Verse 4]
Then Joseph flew [G]in anger,
in anger he flew
"Oh, let the father of the baby
gather cherries for you"
"Oh, let the father of the baby
gather cherries for you"

[Verse 5]
So [G]the cherry- tree bowed low
down, low down to the ground
And Mary gathered cherries
while Joseph stood down
And Mary gathered cherries while
Joseph stood down

[Verse 6]
Then Joseph took Mary all on [G]his right
knee
Crying, "Lord,
have mercy for what I have done"
Crying, "Lord,
have mercy for what I have done"

[Verse 7]
When [G]Joseph was an old man,
an old man was he
He courted Virgin Mary,
the queen of Galilee
He courted Virgin Mary, the queen of Galilee
[G][G]
