1
I saved up my money to buy my sweetheart some flowers
2
For Saturday's date and I restlessly counted the hours
3
Then today in the mail, I received this short little note
4
And I broke down inside at the message that her mother wrote
5
Mary Ann regrets, she's unable to see you again
6
We're leaving for Europe next week, she'll be busy till then
7
They know that she loves me, but poor boys don't fit in their plan
8
Good-bye true love, good-bye my sweet Mary Ann
9
The weeks have gone by not a word have I heard since then
10
In the papers I read of the far away places she's been
11
I can't eat, I can't sleep for over and over again
12
My mind reads that letter and I cry for my Mary Ann
13
Mary Ann regrets, she's unable to see you again
14
We're leaving for Europe next week, she'll be busy till then
15
They know that she loves me but poor boys don't fit in their plan
16
Good-bye true love, good-bye my sweet Mary Ann
17
My Mary Ann died, they said she just wasted away
18
If I could have seen her, I know she'd be living today
19
For we loved each other and if they'd have left us alone
20
Today she'd be wearing my ring, not a blanket of stone
21
Mary Ann regrets, she's unable to see you again
22
We're leaving for Europe next week, she'll be busy till then
23
They knew that she loves me but poor boys don't fit in their plan
24
Good-bye true love, good-bye my sweet Mary Ann
