Somebody Told Mary Lyrics - Kenny Price

Somebody told Mary, Mary had to tell her friends 

Jim got to work and he had to tell it over and over again 

It's the hardest thing in town how the news must get around 

I wanted to be the first to tell you I love you 

We've been sittin' in the classroom nine long years or so 

And the smile you gave me every day made me wanna know 

But someone saw me as I wrote our names side by side 

In a heart on my valentine to you 

Now everyone knows I guess includin' you 

It won't change the way I feel or the things that I do 

It's been on my mind so long I'm glad they've spread the news 

Now I only hope you'll say I love you too 

Somebody told Mary, Mary had to tell her friends 

Jim got to work and he had to tell it over and over again 

It's the hardest thing in town how the news must get around 

I wanted to be the first to tell you I love you
