O Mary, Don't You Weep, Don't You Mourn

Refrain:
O Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn,
O Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn;
Pharoh's army got drownded,
O Mary, don't you weep.

1 Some of these mornings bright and fair,
Take my wings and cleave the air.
Pharoh's army got drownded
O Mary, don't you weep. [Refrain]

2 When I get to Heaven goin' to sing and shout,
Nobody there for to turn me out.
Pharoh's army got drownded
O Mary, don't you weep. [Refrain]

3 When I get to Heaven goin' to put on my shoes,
Run about glory and tell all the news.
Pharoh's army got drownded
O Mary, don't you weep. [Refrain]
