Lyrics : Mary Ann
Out on a late night, way after midnight, armed with a bottle or two
What's the time? - I'm gettin' out of my mind
I've gotta get to you
She was in black lace, ""Come back to my place, come for a drink and a dance""
Boy, I found she didn't hang around
I didn't stand a chance
She paid a big rent for an apartment uptown One-twenty-one
She said ""Come inside, I've got nothin' to hide
""I only want some fun""
Havin' a good time walkin' a tight line, I was out of my head
Just when I reached for you, like I usually do
I found her instead
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
But I can't do more than try
Tearin' my heart out tryin' to make it up to you
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
That's truth, and that's no lie
Cryin' my eyes out, gotta get it back with you
I woke up early with everythin' blurry and my head rattled with pain
Even so, I heard the doorbell go
And someone call my name
There was her best friend down for the weekend, I knew I'd met her before
She said ""You dirty man
""When I see Mary Ann, I'm gonna tell her the score""
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
But I can't do more than try
Tearin' my heart out tryin' to make it up to you
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
That's truth, and that's no lie
Cryin' my eyes out, gotta get it back with you
Out on a late night way after midnight armed with a bottle or two
What's the time? - I'm gettin' out of my mind
I've got to get to you
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
But I can't do more than try
Tearin' my heart out tryin' to make it up to you
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
That's truth, and that's no lie
Cryin' my eyes out, gotta get it back with you
Cryin' my eyes out, gotta get it back with you
