Little Marie

Yes, oh yes, long distance, I'll accept the charge, I'll pay

Which loved one is calling me, I did not hear you say

Both are deep within my heart, her mom and my Marie

It's so good to hear your voice from Memphis, Tennessee

Oh, you mean so much to me, more than you'll ever know

Surely, you have not forgot how much I love you so

If you would remember dear, and sometimes talk to me

Maybe that would reunite our home in Tennessee

Last time I saw you, just before I had to leave

You did not want to see me off and promised not to grieve

My heart was torn apart as I looked back at my Marie

And there, the pieces still remain with you in Tennessee

I guess I should stop talking, after all you placed the call

But anyway that I can help, you know I'll help you all

Then she spoke and asked me to come back and see Marie

And live together in our home in Memphis, Tennessee
