Mary Was The Marrying Kind
[Verse 1]
Yeah, Jenny was the kind you'd call up late
For a date on Friday night
Didn't never matter how much I had to drink
She come and give me a ride

[Verse 2]
Yeah, Becky was a hell-raising, dart-throwing girl
That could match me beer for beer
Ally was a singer with stars in her eyes
And Mary was the marrying kind

[Verse 3]
Gretchen was a grad student working on her masters
A little too smart for me
Tammy was a teacher, her daddy was a preacher
Evil as a girl could be

[Verse 4]
Yeah, Megan was a millionaire, senator's daughter
My collar was too damn blue
Miss Virginia sure was fine
But Mary was the marrying kind

[Chorus]
Oh Mary, Mary
Couldn't see it at the time
Oh Mary, Mary
How could I've been so blind?
[Verse 5]
Mary was a blond-haired, blue-eyed girl next door
With an angel face
I figured I could find her wild side
So I took her on a couple of dates

[Verse 6]
She was sweet and smart, a queen-size heart
Nothing like the other girls
She just laughed at my best line
'Cause Mary was the marrying kind

[Chorus]
Oh Mary, Mary
Couldn't see it at the time
Oh Mary, Mary
How could I've been so blind?

[Verse 7]
'Cause she was something different
I didn't know what I was missing
My best friend proved what I already knew
Mary was the marrying kind, yeah

[Chorus]
Oh Mary, Mary
Couldn't see it at the time
Oh Mary, Mary
How could I've been so blind?
Oh Mary, Mary
Couldn't see it at the time
Oh Mary, Mary
How could I've been so blind?

[Outro]
How could I've been so blind?
How could I've been so blind?
Oh, I didn't see it
Babe, I didn't see it
How could I've been so blind?
