[Verse 1]
A very old friend came by today
'Cause he was telling everyone in town
Of the love that he just found
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
[Verse 2]
He talked and talked, and I heard him say
That she had the longest, blackest hair
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
[Verse 3]
Though I smiled, the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck, and then he said goodbye
He was gone, but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do but cry?
[Verse 4]
Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
She'd be mine eternally?
And Marie's the name of his latest flame
[Verse 3]
Though I smiled, the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck, and then he said goodbye
He was gone, but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do but cry?
