The lights shine down the valley,
The wind blows up the alley.
Oh, and how I wish I was,
Lying in the arms of Mary.
She took the pains of boyhood,
And turned them into feel good.
Oh, and how I wish was,
Lying in the arms of Mary.
Mary was the girl who taught me,
All I had to know,
She put me right on my first mistakes.
Summer wasn't gone when I'd learned,
All she had to show,
She really gave all a boy could take.
So now when I get lonely,
Still looking for the one and only.
That's when I wish I was,
Lying in the arms of Mary.
Mary was the girl who taught me,
All I had to know.
She put me right on my first mistake
Summer wasn't gone when I'd learned
All she had to show,
She really gave all a boy could take.
The lights shine down the valley,
The wind blows up the alley,
Oh, how wish I was.
Lying in the arms of Mary.
Lying in the arms of Mary,
