Maria

Maria darling I must go,
But remember I love you so.
Unfortunately we must part,
Girl you don't know how it breaks my heart.
I wish I could stay with you,
And give you what is yours, dou-dou.
But until we meet again I know,
Right now we got to say adio'.
Oh.. Maria!
Oh.. Maria!
I like the way you walk, marie,
And I like the way you talk, marie.
I like the way you smile, marie;
You know you have me goin' wild, marie.
It's very plain to see, marie,
How much you mean to me, marie.
I don't care if I starve, marie;
You'll get all the money I have, marie.
Oh.. Maria!
Oh.. Maria!
I went home to marie last night,
But somebody nearly out me light.
I don't know what was his reason,
Now the police have him in prison.
I don't know if what he said was true;
He says he loves maria too.
But now I can't see what to do;
Because he have me eyes well black and blue.
Oh.. Maria!
Oh.. Maria.
