Written by Andy Evans

lyrics

Mary is the sweetest girl I know.
I’d like to say I’m on her list
But she barely knows that I exist
I’m looking for a way to get through to her
I’d call her if I had the nerve
I’d get the chance that I deserve.
Mary put your glad rags on
We’ll go up town, we’ll have some fun
Oh Mary we can dance the night away
But Mary’s with those other guys in town
It’s not fair how she shares it around

Mary likes her friends to talk things through
Guys like me I guess prefer
To be quietly obsessed by her
I never get to tell her how I feel
You may think that talk is free
Doesn’t seem that way to me.
Mary send those friends away
I rehearsed my lines I got things to say
Mary I would tell it all to you.
I’d like to tell you what pains you put me through
But I’m tongue-tied and twisted by you

Tell me, tell me why love’s so scary
Why it seems so extraordinary
I live in hope but it’s only rarely
That I come close to my Mary, Mary

Mary can’t you make the switch
I tickle your fancy you scratch my itch
Mary, Mary I would tell it all to you.
I’m just trying to state my point of view
But I’m tongue-tied and twisted by you
