Let Me Tell You About Mary

(Bobby Bare)



Won't you let me tell you 'bout Mary

I promise it won't take me very long

'Cause all I have to say about Mary

Is I'm afraid my Mary's gone wrong.



The day I went away and left Mary

She promised she would wait eternally for me

But I came back today heard my Mary

Say yes, she don't want any part of me.



So now won't you let me tell you 'bout Mary

I promise it won't take me very long

'Cause all I have to say about Mary

Is I'm afraid my Mary's gone wrong.

I came back and went by to see Mary

But she couldn't even look me in the eye

Then when I asked her what happened

I stood there and watched my Mary cry.



So won't you let me tell you 'bout Mary

I promise it won't take me very long

'Cause all I have to say about Mary

Is I'm afraid my Mary's gone wrong.



Oh. I'm afraid my Mary's goin' wrong...
