I saved up my money to buy
my sweetheart some flowers
For Saturday's date and I

restlessly counted the hours.
Then today in the mail I
received this short little note
And I broke down inside at the

message that her mother wrote.
Mary Ann regrets she's

unable to see you agaim

We're leaving for Europe next week,

she'll be busytill then.
They know that she loves me, but
poor boys don't fut in their plan.

Good-bye true love,

good-bye my sweet Mary Ann.
Good-bye true love,

good-bye my sweet Mary Ann.
a word have I heard since them

In the papers I read ofthe

far away places she's been.
In the papers I read ofthe

far away places she's been.
I can't eat, I can't sleep
for over and over again

My mind reads that letter

and I cry for my Mary Ann.
My mind reads that letter

and I cry for my Mary Ann.
Mary Ann regrets she's

unable to see you agaim

We're leaving for Europe next week,

she'll be busytill then.
They know that she loves me but
poor boys don't fut in their plan.

Good-bye true love,

good-bye my sweet Mary Ann.
My Mary Ann died, they said

she just wasted awaw
lfl could have seen herl

know she'd be living today.
For we loved each other and

ifthey'd have left us alone,

Today she'd be wearing my ring,

not a blanket of stone.
Today she'd be wearing my ring,

not a blanket of stone.
We're leaving for Europe next week,

she'll be busytill then.
They know that she loves me but

poor boys don't fit in their plan.

Good-bye true love, good-bye

my sweet Mary... Ann ........
Good-bye true love, good-bye

my sweet Mary... Ann ........
