歌词
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
He walked through an orchard
So deep and so green
There were berries and cherries
As thick as might be seen
There were berries and cherries
As thick as might be seen
Then 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"
Then 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 the baby
From in Mary's womb
"Bend down the tallest branches
So mother might have some"
"Bend down the tallest branches
So mother might have some"
He bent the tallest branches
They touched Mary's hand
Cried she, "Oh look now Joseph
I have cherries by command"
Cried she, "Oh look now Joseph
I have cherries by command"
As they went a-walking
An angel did sing
"And Mary's child at midnight
Was born to be the King"
"And Mary's child at midnight
Was born to be the King"
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
