Mary Did U Know Lyrics

[Connor, with Jeremiah and Hunter]
December 25—you know we back in town for business
That new tribe song on everybody’s wishlist
Try to steal the fun and we gon hit you with a Grinch diss
Hoo! Hoo! Who are you to ruin Christmas!

[Hunter]
To the max and off the leash, and it don't matter the degrees
It’s sweater-weather, rock a fleece and Jesus piece, so cold we freeze
Man you smell like beef and cheese
We tryna rep the season, chief
So noel to the world, throw up the peace, like—

[Jeremiah and Carter]
Woo-woo! This a holiday original
With 808s and bouncing base, our jingle bells so rhythmical
Tryna Keep It Cold, but Houston isn’t very frigid tho
Tribe is here to holla 'cause we merry—Mary, did you know?
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know?

[Carter]
Well, I mean, she probably did, let’s not forget ‘bout Gabriel
That baby boy was God born as a lowkey fetus
Because that Great I Am became a trochee—Jesus!

[Chorus: tribe]
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Oh Mary did you know)
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Oh Mary did you know)
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Yeah Mary did you know)
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Oh Mary did you know)
[Sam]
Mary-Mary, yessir, Mariah Carrey
Make a hit song in your Christmas jammies
Silent night, holy night, star in the sky
Miracle, mystical, something divine
Every Word in the womb, every world in your eyes
Minimal flex to eliminate pride

[Chorus: tribe and Nelli Anderson]
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Oh Mary did you know) Did you know? Did you know?
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Oh Mary did you know) Did you know? Did you know?
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Yeah Mary did you know) Did you know? Did you know?
Mary did you know? Mary-Mary did you know? (Oh Mary did you know)

[Carter, Jeremiah, (Hunter), and Connor]
Did you know? Did you tell Joseph? Ah! Eah! Ahaha!
Mary did you know?
Bah! Yah! C'mon!
(She didn't know)
(She probably did)
Mary, Mary, (Mary did you know?)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

As a Christmas Eve special release, tribe reworked the semi-beloved and (perhaps theologically shallow) classic “Mary Did You Know” into a trappy, rhythmic record that had a “U” in the title to make it sound more hip-hoppy.
