| Marie
|
| I can’t bear to see the children without bread
|
| Oh Marie
|
| They deserve a decent roof above their heads
|
| Trust me now
|
| And when I leave for town, my darling, don’t be sad
|
| Or ask me how
|
| But tomorrow, we’re have all the things we never had
|
| But if I’m not back there with you
|
| By the time the sun goes down
|
| Take the train, change your name
|
| And get the children out of town
|
| Yes, if I’m not back there with you
|
| By the time the sun has gone
|
| Forget me, my Marie
|
| And move on
|
| Marie
|
| Ah, you’ve never had a new dress you could wear
|
| Oh Marie
|
| You look so pretty with a ribbon in your hair
|
| For too long
|
| You’ve gone without the life that I once promised you
|
| Right or wrong
|
| But today I’ll find a way to make it all come true
|
| But if I’m not back there with you
|
| By the time the sun goes down
|
| Take the train, change your name
|
| And get the children out of town
|
| Yes, if I’m not back there with you
|
| By the time the sun has gone
|
| Forget me, my Marie
|
| And move on
|
| Forget me, my Marie
|
| And move on |
