Hank Snow - Mary Ann Regrets

Mary Ann Regrets
Hank Snow

I save up my money to buy my sweetheart some flowers
For Saturday's date and I restlessly counted the hours



And I'd broke down inside at the message that her mother's wrote

Mary Ann regrets she's unable to see you again
Then today in the mail I recieved a short little note
We'll leaving for Europe next week she'll be busy till then

They know that she loves me but poor boys don't fit in their plans


Goodbye true love goodbye my sweet Mary Ann



The weeks have gone by not a word have I heard since then
In the papers I read of the far away places she's been



I can't eat I can't sleep for over and over again
My mind reads that letter and I cry for my Mary Ann

If I could have seen her I know she'd be living today
My Mary had died too sad she just wasted away

For we loved each other and if they had left us alone


Today she'd be wearing my ring not a blanket of stone

Mary Ann regrets...
