Hello Mary

(Bobby Bond)



Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is me

Yeah I know I told you I'd be home by three

But you gotta believe me this is real

I got caught up in a business deal

And it's gonna be a little while 'fore I get back.



I've been sittin' here sippin' on a beer

And time slipped by man it sure does fly

I think I oughta go find me a telephone

And don't go messin' with my ten dollar stack

Just start a round and I'll be right back

Gotta put in the call see if I still got a home.



Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is me

Yeah I know I told you I'd be home by three

But you gotta believe me this is real

I got caught up in a business deal

And it's gonna be a little while 'fore I get back.



All right you guys I made my call

Let me lean back here up against the wall

Just deal them cards and make sure they're off the top

I don't know why but when I get in the game

Ain't nothin' on the outside looks the same

I guess I'm a gamblin' man that just can't stop.



Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is me

Yeah I know I told you I'd be home by three

But you gotta believe me this is real

I got caught up in a business deal

And it's gonna be a little while 'fore I get back.



Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is Moe

Yeah I know I told you I'd be home long time ago...
