Now 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 go-one wrong

The day I went away and left Mary
She promised she would wait eternally for me
I came back today, heard my Mary say
Guess you won't want any part of me

Oh-oh won't you let me tell you 'about Mary
I promise it won't take me very long
'Cause all I have to say about Mary
I'm afraid my Mary's gone wrong

Today I went by to see Mary
She couldn't even look me in the eye, she tried
And when I asked her what happened
I just stood there and watched my Mary cry

Oh-oh 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

Oh-oh, 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
I'm afraid my Mary's gone wro-ong
I'm afraid my Mary's go-one wrong (wrong)
