Mary

Cat. #1514 (MFH #1005) - As sung by Donnie Koonce, Springfield, Missouri on March 13, 1975

VERSE 1
I take a trip every evenin'
Right down memory lane
Strolling thru those familiar scenes
Living life over again
I can always see my sweetheart
Just as she used t' be
Waiting for someone at th garden gate
That someone is me

VERSE 2
Big, brown eyes, curly hair
Can't you tell that's Ma-ry
Ruby lips, and crimson cheeks
Cain't you tell that's Ma-ry

VERSE 3
Of't times we'll go strolling
Just her an' me
Hand in hand together
Beneath the old Pepper tree
I can feel her hand in mine
As I set alone tonight
Creaming of sweet hours I spent
With Mary
