[C] [Gm] [C]
[Gm] [C] [Gm]
Well, cutting through [C] the cane [Gm] branch, riding the [C] stem,
[Gm] Sunday that the rain makes when the shadow tops [C] the hill,
[Gm] Big line on [C] the back [Gm] street, here they ever more,
Hacking down the ladder with a hammer to the floor,
Here come the big black Mariahs,
Here come the big black [G] Mariahs,
Here [Gm] come the big [C] black [Gm] [C] Mariahs,
[Gm] I seen the big [Dm] black [Gm] boy,
Well [C] he's all boxed up on a red bell dance,
[G] [Gm] Hunting black Johnny with a black mask,
[C] Yellow bullet with a rag out in the wind,
[D] An old black tiger and an old male chimp,
[Gm] Here come the big black Mariahs,
Here come the big black Mariahs,
Here come the big black Mariahs,
Here come that big black boy,
I seen him in disguise on a fanny jacket blue,
Off the bed without a supper like a little bride does,
Here come the old widow Jones,
[D] Got a wooden coat, this boy [Gm] never come at home,
Here come the big black Mariahs,
Here come the big black Mariahs,
Here come the big [F] black [Gm] Mariahs,
I seen that big black boy,

Well [Gm] he's all boxed up on a red bell dance,
Black black Johnny with a black mask came,
A hundred yellow bullets [C] shook out a rag in the wind,
[F#] [D] An old black tiger on a bell he hit,
Here [Gm] come the big black Mariahs,
[C] Here [Gm] come the big black Mariahs,
