Traditional, arranged by Van Morrison/Paddy Moloney
 
 Chorus:
 Step we gaily on we go,
 Heel and heel
 And toe for toe,
 Arm and arm
 And row and row,
 All for Marie's wedding.
 
 Over hillways, up and down,
 Myrtle green and bracken brown,
 Past the sheilings through the town
 All for the sake of Marie.
 
 Chorus
 
 Red her cheeks as rowans are,
 Bright her eyes as any star.
 Fairest of them all by far,
 Is our darlin' Marie.
 
 Chorus
 Plenty herring, plenty meal,
 Plenty peat to fill her kreel.
 Plenty bonnie bairns as well,
 That's the toast for Marie.
