Dm F G Am As Joseph and Mary walked in the wood Dm F G Dm They saw cherries and berries red as any blood. [Verse 2] Dm Am G D Oh then bespoke Mary so meek and so mild, Dm Am F C "Pluck me one cherry for I am with child." Dm F G Am Oh then bespoke Joseph with words unkind, Dm F G Dm "Let him pluck thee a cherry that brought thee with child." [Verse 3] Dm Am G D Oh then bespoke the babe within his mother's womb, Dm Am F C "Bow down your tall tree and give my mother some." Dm F G Am Then bowed down the cherry tree to his mother's hand.

Dm F G Am Then Mary took her babe all on her knee, Dm F G Dm Saying "my dear son tell me what this world will be." [Verse 5] Dm Am G Dm "Oh I shall be as dead as the stones in the wall. Dm Am F C Oh the stones in the streets shall mourn me all. Dm F C Upon Easter day uprisen I'll be Dm F G Dm For the sun and moon shall both rise with me."
