The light shines down the valley
The wind blows up the alley
Oh, how I wish, I was lyin' in the arms of Mary
She took the pains of boyhood
And turned them into feel good
Oh, how I wish, I was lyin' in the arms of Mary
Mary was the girl who taught me, all I had to know
She out me right on my first mistake
Summer wasn't gone
When I learned all, she had to give
She really gave all, a boy could take
So now when I get lonely
Still lookin' for my one and only
That's when I wish was lyin' in
The arms of Mary
Mary was the girl who taught me, all I had to know
She out me right on my first mistake
