Lyrics
Baby's back, all dressed in black
Silver buttons up and down her back
High, low, tipsy toe
She broke the needle now she can't sewWalking the dog
Just a-walking the dog
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dogMary, Mary, quite contrary
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a rowAsked the [fellow] for fifteen cents (note 1)
See the [fellow], he jumped the fence (note 2)
Jumped so high, he touched the sky
Never got back until the fourth of JulyMary, Mary, quite contrary
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a rowBaby's back, all dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High, low, tipsy toe
She broke the needle now she can't sewBaby's back, all dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High, low, tipsy toe
She broke the needle now she can't sewJust a-walking
Yeah, yeah, just a-walking
Yeah, just a-walking
Yeah, yeah, just a-walking
If you don't know how to do it
I'll show you how to walk the dog
