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
