The light shines down the valley
The wind blows up the alley
Oh how I wish I was lying in the
Arms of Mary

She took the pains of boyhood
And turned them into feel good
Oh how I wish I was lying in the
Arms of Mary

Mary was the girl who taught me
All I had to know
She put me right on the first mistake
And the summer wasn't gone
When I'd learned all she had to give
She really gave all a boy could take

ohh....

So now when I get lonely
Still looking for my one and only
That's when I wish I was lying in the
Arms of Mary

Ohhh Mary

Mary was the girl who taught me
All I had to know
She put me right on the first mistake
And summer wasn't gone
When I'd learned all she had to give
She really gave all a boy could take...

So now when I get lonley
I'm still lookin' for my one and only
That's when I whish I was lying in the
Arms of Mary

The light shines down the valley
The wind blows up the alley
Oh how I wish I was lying in the
Arms of Mary

Lying in the Arms of Mary
Lying in the Arms of Mary

I'm lying in the Arms of Mary

oohhh.... Mary
