My Mary Songtext
von Merle Haggard

I take a trip every evenin′
Strollin' down memory lane
I′m walkin' again those familiar paths
Dreamin' those dreams again

And I can always see my sweetheart
Just as she used to be
Waiting for someone at the garden gate
And I know that someone is me


Big brown eyes and pearly hair
And you′d tell that′s Mary
Rosy cheeks and ruby lips
Can't you tell that′s Mary?

Oft' times in the evening we′d go strolling
Hand in hand together
Beneath the pepper tree
And I can feel her hand in mine
As I sit alone tonight
Dreamin' of the times I spent with Mary

Oft′ times in the evening we'd go strolling
Hand in hand together
Beneath the pepper tree


And I can feel her hand in mine
As I sit alone tonight
Dreamin' of the hours I spent with Mary
