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.

Joseph and Mary walked through
An orchard green
There were berries and cherries,
As thick as might be seen.
There were berries and cherries,
As thick as might be seen.

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.

Then Joseph 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 bend down the tallest branches,
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.
