Intro

A very old friend came by today..

cause he was telling everyone in town,

of the love that he'd just found..

 And Marie`s the name..of his latest flame.

He talked and talked, and I heard him say..

that she had the longest blackest hair,

 the prettiest green eyes anywhere..

 And Marie`s the name..of his latest flame.

Chorus

Though I smiled, the tears inside were a burning.

 I wished him luck and then he said goodbye.

He was gone but still his words kept returning.

 What else was there for me to do, but cry?

Would you believe, that yesterday..this girl was in my

 arms and swore to me..she`d be mine eternally..

 And Marie`s the name..of his latest flame.

Chorus

Though I smiled, the tears inside were a burning.

Would you believe, that yesterday..this girl was in my

 arms and swore to me..she`d be mine eternally..

 And Marie`s the name..of his latest flame.

Outro

Yeah, Marie`s the name, of his latest flame..

Oh, Marie`s the name, of his latest flame..(Fade.)
