Intro:
Part 1:
( )
A very old friend came by today
( )
Cos he was telling everyone in town
( )
About the love that he just found
And Marie s the name of his latest flame
Part 2:
( )
He talked and talked and I heard him say
( )
That she had the longest blackest hair
( )
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
And Marie s the name of his latest flame
Chorus :
( )
Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
( )
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
( )
He was gone but still his words kept returning
( )
What else was there for me to do but cry
Part 3:
( )
Would you believe that yesterday
( )
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
( )
She d be mine eternally
And Marie s the name of his latest flame
Repete chorus
Repete Part 3
And Marie s the name of his latest flame
And Marie s the name of his latest flame
And Marie s the name of his latest flame
