Píseň: Hello Mary Lou

Interpret:
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Album:
Mardi Gras
I said:  Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart,
sweet Mary Lou, i´m so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou, we´d never part
so hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!


Passed me by one sunny day, flashed those big brown eyes my way
and oo I wanted you forever mor
I´m not one that gets around, swear my feet stuck to the ground 
and though I never did meet you before.


I said:  Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart,
sweet Mary Lou, i´m so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou, we´d never part
so hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart!


Saw your lips I heard your voice, believe me I just had no choice, 
wild horses couldn´t make me stay away.
Thought about a moonlit night, my arms around you good an´tight,
that´s all I had to see for me to say


I said:  Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart,
sweet Mary Lou, i´m so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou, we´d never part
so hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
so hello Mary Lou, Goodbye heart
Yes, hello Mary Lou, Goodbye heart!
