Marie Marie

Marie, Marie

Playing guitar on the back porch

I sit in my car

While you sing so sad, Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie

It's so lonely in these farmlands

Please come with me

To the bright lights downtown, Marie, Marie

And I say, hey, pretty girl

Don't you understand

Oh, that I just want to be your loving man

Marie, Marie

I got two weeks in back pay

And there's gas in my car

And your folks say that I gotta go, Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie

The sun is down in the cornfields

Evenin' in the dark

And you sing so sad, Marie, Marie

And I say, hey, pretty girl

Don't you understand

Oh, that I just want to be your loving man

Marie, Marie

I got two weeks in back pay

And there's gas in my car

And your folks say that I gotta go, Marie, Marie

Marie, Marie

Playing guitar on the back porch

I leave in my car

While you sing so sad, Marie, Marie
