Mary Jean

She came into my life like a bombshell

One look and I fell for little Mary Jean

She walked cool with her head always held high

The glow in her eyes made her look like a queen

A little queen, Mary Jean

She took a hold of my heart and held me under a spell

I guess she knew me real well

Just why we hung together through all those tears

I couldn't tell you now in a million years

I didn't think that the cause of my downfall

Would be pretty and small like little Mary Jean

And I couldn't know when I held her that first night

(feeling ever so right) that one day it would end

In a scene. Mary Jean

Now she's gone yes she's gone and I think I'll be alright

But then the phone rings at night

She's on the line again and it's just no fun

We've got a bad connection, Mary I've gotta run

Hey now I just had to tell her to go away

It's so unexciting around here today

I'm standing here looking down at my shoes

With a case of the blues over little Mary Jean

She was so pretty and small

She was the cause of my downfall

We used to fuss and fight

And I dream about her every single night
