| If I had money, I would buy you a car
|
| Cadillac that glows in the light of the stars
|
| On the freeway
|
| After that what we’ll do is burn down the house
|
| Dance around the fire till the flames burn out
|
| Cuss the next day
|
| Oh, Marie, hold these songs in your arms
|
| Because, Marie, it’s all that you’ll have when I’m gone
|
| On the fence looking over greener grass
|
| If I ever had something it was in the past
|
| And I left it
|
| But I got my daddy’s guitar, American flag
|
| Stories, melodies, and the chances I had
|
| To replace it
|
| Oh, Marie, hold these songs in your arms
|
| Because, Marie, it’s all that you’ll have when I’m gone
|
| Baby’s got money 'cause she went to school
|
| Everyone knows if the breeze is cool
|
| Seasons changing
|
| I’m gonna swing on a guitar string
|
| Hold down the water of a blue-green sea
|
| Rearranging
|
| Oh, Marie, hold these songs in your arms
|
| Because, Marie, it’s all that you’ll have when I’m gone
|
| Oh, Marie, hold these songs in your arms
|
| Because, Marie, it’s all that you’ll have when I’m gone |
