Mary and the Little Lamb
Mary and the Little Lamb - Yusuf/Cat Stevens
Written by:Yusuf/Cat Stevens
Mary had a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went the lamb was sure to go
It followed her most every day and it made the people laugh
Youd never see it work or play and youd never see it at the grass
Oh theyll be loving a long long time from now
But itll be too late for him
Oh theyll be kissing and hugging and holding tight
But itll be too late for him
And people tried to talk to him but it never made no sense
Cause just as they were getting through itd be jumping another fence
Itd follow in her footsteps and everywhere she went
Itd see him in there with her but youd never be seeing him
Oh theyll be loving a long long time from now
But itll be too late for him
Yes theyll be kissing and hugging and holding tight
But itll be too late for him
Now one dark day a big storm came
And it blew Marys house away
All the walls had vanished and there was nowhere for Mary to stay
She cried and cried and looked around
But everything was gone
Except for that one little lamb
He was still holding on
Oh theyll be loving a long long time from now
But therell be no one more happy than him
Cause every night the moon shines bright
And shell be cuddling up to him
Theyll be loving a long long time from now
But therell be no one more happy than him
Cause every nightthe stars shine bright
And shell be cuddling up to him
