Peter O'Donnell - Mary’s Man Again

Mary's Man Again
Lady Mary, she's a dish
Bright red lipstick, so make a wish
Does anyone know the way to town? Take a taxi

Freddy Jar, he gets around
To every bar in this little old town
He staggers home along the promenade, by the chip shop

Down in the church, a blackbird sings
The vicar is looking for a diamond ring
Thrown away in a hissy fit, bottled out, at the last minute

Lady Mary, Freddy Jar
Drove around in a Cadillac car
The automatic hood was always down
You could see them

They were inseparable, thought it was love
She should have known when push came to shove
She really didn't want to settle down, and miss the party

Freddy Jar, he didn't mind
He went along just to be kind
Not a guy who looked for trouble
Bloody Mary gave him double

Down in the church, a blackbird sings
The vicar is looking for a diamond ring
Thrown away in a hissy fit, bottled out, at the last minute

The car was sold, it just got old anyway
Both expected they would call any day
Down in the church, a blackbird sings
To love that's lost with Mary's ring
Freddy Jar takes the long way home
And Lady Mary's all alone

Freddy Jar, he didn't mind
He went along just to be kind
Lady Mary took his hand
And Freddy Jar was Mary's man again
