Mary And Joseph

Mary was the first of three
 Long black hair and sugar sweet
 Daddy's eyes and momma's crooked smile
 She was barely seventeen
 Got a job keepin' dishes clean
 Planned to stay in this city for awhile
 For awhile
 ♪
 Joseph ran a lumber yard
 About a mile from olive park
 Quiet boy, he never had much to say
 It was love right from the start
 He bought a ring and won Mary's heart
 Had hopes for a home and kids someday
 Kids someday
 ♪
 The angel scared her half to death
 She would've screamed, but she lost her breath
 On a midnight, there in the middle of May
 He said, "Oh Mary don't be afraid
 You'll bear a son that the Lord has made
 Name Him Jesus, He'll light the way"
 Light the way
 ♪
 She packed the clothes, he made the plans
 They had to go to Bethlehem
 But there was nowhere left for them to stay
 So in a barn she gave birth
 To the King of Kings and the Lord of Earth
 Just a little bitty thing, sleeping on the hay
 ♪
 The story's too long to tell
 But He walked on water and lived through hell
 Killed on a cross and rose from the grave
 We got a King, they got a son
 Mary and Joseph were the only ones
 There on that very first Christmas day
 There on that very first Christmas day
