Playing guitar on the back porch

I sit in my car

While she sings so sad

Marie Marie

Marie Marie

It's so lonely in these farmlands

Please come with me

To the bright lights downtown

Marie Marie

chorus:

G D

I said, "Hey, pretty girl

D

Don't you understand

D

I just want to be your lovin' man"

Marie Marie

The sun is down in the corn fields

The evening is dark

And you sing so sad

Marie Marie

Marie Marie

I got two weeks in back pay

There's gas in my car

And your folks say I must go

Marie Marie

(repeat chorus)

Marie Marie

Playing guitar on the back porch

I leave in my car

While you sing so sad
