Marie Marie Playing guitar on the back porch I sit in my car While she sings so sad Marie Marie

Marie Marie It's so lonely in these farmlands Please come with me To the bright lights downtown Marie Marie

Chorus

I said, "Hey, pretty girl Don't you understand I just want to be your lovin' 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 Marie Marie

(repeat chorus)

Marie Marie Playing guitar on the back porch I leave in my car While you sing so sad Marie Marie
