Marie marie
Playing guitar on the back porch
I sit in my car
While she sings so sad
Marie marie
It's so lonely in these farmlands
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
I got two weeks in back pay
There's gas in my car
And your folks say i must go
I said, "hey, pretty girl don't you understand
I just want to be your loving man"
Marie marie
Marie marie
Playing guitar on the back porch
I leave in my car
While you sing so sad
