Let Me Tell You About Mary Lyrics

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 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?

Ohh, I'm afraid, my Mary's goin' wrong
