Lyrics
It was eighteen hundred and ninety two
The horses were young and the buggy was new
Jim and Margo were happy and gay
And the date was the 9th of May.
A horseless carriage abruptly appeared
The stallion jumped and whinnied and reared
Margo hit the dirt in a sickening way
And Jim was alone on his wedding day.
Margo, Margo
Margo's gone away
But they say that old Jim
Meets her every 9th of May.
Margo's been gone for many a year
But her name still brings a trace of a tear
To ol' Jim's old eyes as dim as they are
And he still hates the sight of a car.
Once a year old Jim goes back to the scene
And he waits near the church for his long lost queen
They make all the wedding vows over they say
When Margo appears on the 9th of May.
Margo, Margo
Margo's gone away
But they say that old Jim
Meets her every 9th of May...
Every 9th of May
What a great story song!. If you listen to those words, I think you will agree. Also, this is my oldest son's favorite's of all The Browns. (Maxine Brown)
I sure love this with all the Browns
This has always been my favorite Browns song. I play it on this date every year. Back in the 1960s when I worked at radio station WGH, I got morning announcer George Crawford to play it each May 9th. He had to play it before sunrise, so the station manager wouldn't gripe about it.
One of several really good songs from the fantastic sound of The Browns. After 'The Three Bells', my favorite is 'You Can't Grow Peaches On A Cherry Tree'. Great song... "You can't be loved unless you want to be."
this has long been my favorite song by the Browns...
Margo is also available on the CD, "Country Music Odyssey". (Maxine Brown)
Eighteen hundred and ninety-two.
Maxine: Who played piano on this? That is a lovely accompaniment.
