When 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 Mary and Joseph walk through an orchid green There were berries and cherries as thick as might be seen There were berries and cherries as thick as might be seen And 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" And Joe 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 Baby Jesus from in Mary's womb "Bend down the tallest tree that my mother might have some" "Bend down the tallest tree that my mother might have some" And bent down tallest branch till it touched Mary's hand Cried she, "Oh look, thou Joseph, I have cherries by command" Cried she, "Oh look, thou Joseph, I have cherries by command"
