Take a Message to Mary

In the style of

The Everly Brothers

Lyrics

these are the words
of a frontier lad

who lost his love
when he turned bad

take a message to mary
but don't tell her where i am

take a message to mary
but don't say i'm in a jam

you can tell her
i had to see the world

or tell her that my ship
set sail

you can say
she better not wait for me

but don't tell her i'm in jail
no don't tell her i'm in jail

take a message to mary
but don't tell her

what i've done
please don't mention

the stagecoach
and the shot

from a careless gun
you can tell her

i had to change my plans
and cancel out

the wedding day
but please don't mention

my lonely cell
where i'm gonna pine away

until my dying day
take a message to mary

but don't tell her all you know
my heart's aching for mary

lord knows i miss her so
just tell her i went

to timbuktu
tell her i'm searching for gold

you can say
she better find someone new

to cherish and to hold
oh lord this cell is cold

mary
mary

oh lord this cell is cold
