Mary Ann from Goodbye Birdcage by Eric Frisch

I was down in the bar when the prettiest girl walked in, she was with her friends having such a time,
When I went up to her and I asked her for a dance, she said, you better, get in line,

But just then and there another girl came up to me, she said her name was Mary Ann,
Said if you want someone to take back home, oh well, here I am,

Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann, oh she took me by the hand, oh that Mary Ann and she said son I’m gonna make you a man,

So I just followed her we went dancing through the room, we were drinking laughing smoking all night long,
Said if you’re down on your luck just call my name, oh I’ll be around,

Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann, oh she took me by the hand, oh that Mary Ann and she said son I’m gonna make you a man,

I don’t know where she came from, and I don’t know where she will go, something tells me I won’t sleep alone,

So we walked out the door and I thought now this is it, but she said this is where your night ends,
Ah cause disappointment’s just another part of life my sweet naïve young man,

Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann, oh she took me by the hand, oh that Mary Ann and she said son I’m gonna make you a man

She said son I’m gonna make you a man, she said son well now you’re a man
