Thread Name: Origin: Pull Your Shades Down Mary Ann
Subject: RE: Origin: Pull Your Shades Down Mary Ann
My grandmother used to sing this (she was born in 1891.)
Pull the blinds down Mary Ann, pull the blinds down Mary Ann.
Late last night in the pale moonlight, I saw ya, I saw ya,
You were combin' your auburn hair
It was hangin' aback the chair.
If you want to keep your secret from your true lovin' man,
Pull the blinds down, Mary Ann.
