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 marie marie
