The Cherry Tree Carol

When Joseph was an old man, an old man was he

He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee

He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of GalileeAnd one day as they went walking, all in the garden green

There were berries and cherries as thick as may be seen

There were berries and cherries as thick as may be seenThen Mary said to Joseph, so meek and so mild

"Joseph, gather me some cherries for I am with child"

"Joseph, gather me some cherries for I am with child"The Joseph flew in anger, in anger flew he

"Let the father of the baby gather cherries for thee

Let the father of the baby gather cherries for thee"Then up spoke baby Jesus from out Mary's womb

"Bow down ye tallest tree that my mother might have some

Bow down ye tallest tree that my mother might have some"So bent down the tallest tree to touch Mary's hand

Said she, "Oh look now Joseph, I have cherries at command"

Said she, "Oh look now Joseph, I have cherries at command"When Joseph was an old man, an old man was he

He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee

He married Virgin Mary, the Queen of Galilee
