So glad I met me a girl named Marilyn Rovell
So glad that I can say so far it's workin' out so well
She gets up at night, while I'm sleepin'
She's shoppin' with Bobbi or Dee (it's short for Diane)
If only she knew how happy it makes me
To see her carry my baby
Mary, oh Mary baby
Oh Mary, my Mary baby
Oh Mary, my Mary baby
Oh Mary, my Mary
And sometimes friends'll ask us, "what the heck is your secret?"
Part luck, part love, and we don't spend our money, we keep it
And when I come home I say honey, please fix me somethin' good to eat
She's right there cookin' it
If only she knew how happy it makes me
To see her carry my baby
Mary, oh Mary baby
Oh Mary, my Mary baby
Oh Mary, oh Mary baby
Oh Mary, my Mary baby
Oh
Come on Mary, sing with me
Oh ho
Look at that little child sing, a-ooo
OK baby, come on
