There's a girl on my mind i can't get over
who'd break the heart of any man
without her things just falls to pieces
oh i'm singing about my mary ann
So i'll just keep touching up my gray hair
live and hope someday she'll understand
it's no matter if i live to be a hundred
there'll always be a place in my heart for mary ann
I know she's out there somewhere in a world that can't be found
just to think of her still tears me down
if teardrops were pennies i'd be a wealthy man
from the tears i've cried for mary ann
