"Mary Ann" lyrics
Well the candle is out and the dreams were young
Tonight has been kind of a lonely one
My heart out of time making up my mind
But I know in the morning the sun will shine
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
Was gone from the cruise, sitting right with them
Just me, my guitar, and the morning sun
I'll be leaving the sweet life with my lovers and friends
But the hardest to leave is my Mary Ann
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
I'm sure that she will understand
Well, you know what they say, they say don't look back
But it's all so hard as I sit by the tracks
To the east is my home sweet home
And to the west is where I long to roam
It's so hard
Well the candle is out and the dreams were young
Tonight has been kind of a lonely one
My heart out of time making up my mind
But I know in the morning the sun will shine
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
I'm sure that she will understand
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
Tonight has been kind of a lonely one
My heart out of time making up my mind
But I know in the morning the sun will shine
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
Was gone from the cruise, sitting right with them
Just me, my guitar, and the morning sun
I'll be leaving the sweet life with my lovers and friends
But the hardest to leave is my Mary Ann
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
I'm sure that she will understand
Well, you know what they say, they say don't look back
But it's all so hard as I sit by the tracks
To the east is my home sweet home
And to the west is where I long to roam
It's so hard
Well the candle is out and the dreams were young
Tonight has been kind of a lonely one
My heart out of time making up my mind
But I know in the morning the sun will shine
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
I'm sure that she will understand
Say goodbye to Mary Ann
Tell her I've gone to the promised land
To make my way in the world as a music man
