lyrics by harlan blynn
Sweet Marie, our story’s tragedy
You touched my neck, I touched your soul
I thought that joke would never get old
Oh Sweet Marie, you set me free
I’ll love you for eternity
I once thought you would marry me
Julie T, I always loved your company
I once had you, you once had three
It drove me to such misery
Oh Julie T, you set me free
Your wild ways enchanted me
I once thought you would marry me
Jessie Pine, you were so kind
You helped me through some troubled times
Then went and stole my rarest wine
Oh Jessie Pine, you set me free
Your laughter was my remedy
I once though you would marry me
TT Rose, you took off your clothes
I walked a mile to see your smile
When I looked back you were mugging Jack
Oh TT Rose, you set me free
A storm from the Isle of Skye
It makes sense you’d marry Guy
Sweet Marie, I know you loved me
We had our dance, I made a mess
I still think of you in that blue dress
Oh Sweet Marie, you set me free
You’re still my favorite melody
I once thought you would marry me
