Paroles de Mary Ann

Out on a late night, way after midnight Armed with a bottle or two What’s the time? I’m gettin’ out of my mind I’ve gotta get to you She was in black lace – come back to my place Come for a drink and a dance Boy, I found she didn’t hang around I didn’t stand a chance She paid a big rent For an apartment uptown One-twenty-one She said “Come inside, I’ve got nothin’ to hide I only want some fun” Havin’ a good time, walkin’ a tight line I was out of my head Just when I reached for you, like I usually do I found her instead Mary Ann, I’m gonna do what I can But I can’t do more than try Tearin’ my heart out tryin’ to make it up to you Mary Ann, I’m gonna do what I can That’s the truth, and that’s no lie Cryin’ my eyes out, gotta get it back with you I woke up early with everythin’ blurry And my head rattled with pain Even so, I heard the doorbell go And someone call my name There was her best friend, down for the weekend I knew I’d met her before She said “You dirty man, when I see Mary Ann I’m gonna tell her the score” Mary Ann, I’m gonna do what I can But I can’t do more than try Tearin’ my heart out tryin’ to make it up to you Mary Ann, I’m gonna do what I can That’s the truth, and that’s no lie Cryin’ my eyes out, gotta get it back with you Out on a late night, way after midnight Armed with a bottle or two What’s the time? I’m gettin’ out of my mind I’ve gotta get to you Mary Ann, I’m gonna do what I can But I can’t do more than try Tearin’ my heart out tryin’ to make it up to you Mary Ann, I’m gonna do what I can That’s the truth, and that’s no lie Cryin’ my eyes out, gotta get it back with you Cryin’ my eyes out, gotta get it back with you
