Lyrics

Words and Music by

DANCE FOR ME MARIE

Kidding myself at the parties
Trying to have a good time
Late in the evening I find
I'm alone again

Singing the blues to a stranger
Telling the troubles I feel
Watching the hustlers deal
Then I start to cry
Yes, I start to cry

But then there was Marie
Who danced like the rolling sea
And when my mind is troubled
Won't you dance for me, Marie
Dancing, keep on dancing
Won't you dance for me, Marie

Gallons of liquor inside me
Spotlights are hurting my eyes
People around me like flies
But I'm all alone

Turning my mind to the music
Hoping to drown out the tears
Ringing around in my ears
Like a telephone
I'm all alone
(Chorus)
