Let Me Tell You About Mary Lyrics - Bobby Bare

Won't you let me tell you 'bout Mary? 

I promise, it won't take me very long 

'Cause all I have to say about Mary 

Is, I'm afraid, my Mary's gone wrong 

The day I went away and left Mary 

She promised she would wait eternally for me 

But I came back today, heard my Mary say 

Yes, she don't want any part of me 

So, now, won't you let me tell you 'bout Mary? 

I came back and went by to see Mary 

But she couldn't even look me in the eye 

Then, when I asked her what happened 

I stood there and watched my Mary cry 

So, won't you let me tell you 'bout Mary? 

Oh, I'm afraid, my Mary's goin' wrong
