Goodbye Marie - Mel McDaniel

I woke up this mornin' all cotton mouthed from drinkin'

Wonderin' how I’d make it through the day

Wild eyed and crazy all burnt out of thinkin'

Wonderin' how the hell I’s gonna say

Oh goodbye Marie oh goodbye Marie

Out the window there’s a lonesome highway calling me

It’s been fun Marie but I gotta run Marie

If I cannot keep your love at least I’ll have your memory

Goodbye Marie

Oh wakin' up beside you in the Tijuana morning

With that ocean breeze to keep us cool

Oh three weeks of lovin' twenty one nights of heaven

I stayed just long enough to be your fool

Oh goodbye Marie oh goodbye Marie

Out the window there’s a lonesome highway calling me

It’s been fun Marie but I gotta run Marie

If I cannot keep your love at least I’ll have your memory

Goodbye Marie

Pour favor pour me one more tequila

I need all the courage I can find

Cause this time tomorrow I’ll be back in Houston

Thinkin' about the girl I left behind

Oh goodbye Marie oh goodbye Marie

Out the window there’s a lonesome highway calling me

It’s been fun Marie but I gotta run Marie

If I cannot keep your love at least I’ll have your memory

Goodbye Marie
