Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie
Playing guitar on the back porch
I sit in my car
Why do you sing so sad?
Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie
It's so lonely in the Parklands
Please come with me
To the bright lights downtown
Marie, Marie

I said hey pretty girl
Don't you understand?
I just want to be your loving man

Marie, Marie
The sun is down in the corn fields
The evening is dark
And you sing so sad
Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie
It's so lonely in the Parklands
Please come with me
To the bright lights downtown
Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie
I've got two weeks in back pay
There's gas in my car
And your folks say I must go
Marie, Marie

I said hey pretty girl
Don't you understand?
I just want to be your loving man

Marie, Marie
Playing guitar on the back porch
I leave in my car
Why do you sing so sad?
Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie
I've got two weeks in back pay
There's gas in my car
And your folks say I must go
Marie, Marie

Why do you sing so sad?
Marie, Marie
Why do you sing so sad?
Marie, Marie...
