Lyrics

Marianne don't you lie to me tonight
I've seen the bruises and I know
that something here ain't right
You might fool your friends, but from
me you cannot hide
So Marianne don't you
lie to me tonight

Marianne it's gonna be alright
You won't have to be afraid
when you rest your head tonight
I've got a fully-loaded .38 and I'm
dying for a fight
So Marianne it's gonna be alright

'Cause I have faith in the grace of God
and the mercy that he brings
But sometimes I think that
God might need a hand
'Cause every single problem's
got its own simple solution
and tonight I've got a problem
with your man
So don't you worry about a thing
Marianne

Marianne you know that I love you
You deserve much better than the
Hell you've been put through
And I hope that you can see after
all I say and do
that Marianne I am the man for you

(Chorus)

Marianne don't you cry for me tonight
I did everything that I felt
in my heart was right
And right now they're taking me away
but someday we'll reunite
So Marianne don't you cry for me tonight
Marianne don't you cry for me tonight
