The lights shine down the valley And the wind blows up the alley Oh, when I wished I was lying in the arms of Mary
She took the pains of boyhood And turned them into feel good Oh, how I wish I was lying in the arms of Mary
Mary was the girl who told me all I had to know She put me right on my first mistake Summer wasn't gone when I learned all she had to show She really gave all a boy could take, oho
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 told me all I had to know She put me right on my first mistake Summer wasn't gone when I learned all she had to show She really gave all a boy could take
The lights shine down the valley And the wind blows up the alley Oh, when I wished I was lying in the arms of Mary
Lying in the arms of Mary Lying in the arms of Mary Oooh, ooohooohooohooohooo
