Mary

Mary, my darling Mary, my dear In your arms In your arms Let me stay right here I fell for Carolina and her warm southern charm But she didn't know how cold men could be At the time I had to see her In the long-run it was dumb For years I missed you Marie I flirted with Virginia And Delaney she was kind But they left me lost and floating in the sea Directionless and too pessimistic I fell fast asleep To dreams of you My darlin' Marie Mary, my darlin Mary, my dear In your arms In your arms Let me stay right here I fell for Carolina and her warm southern charm But she didn't like the ocean or the rain Leaving her was trouble too But it was something I was glad to do Didn't cause me hardly any pain I flirted with Virginia And Delaney she was kind But they weren't rough enough to handle me If I want to raise my children to be Purposeful and strong I need you, my darlin' Marie Mary, my darlin Mary, my dear In your arms In your arms Let me stay right here
