Goodbye Marie

I woke up this mornin' all cotton mouthed from drinkin'
Wonderin' how I'd make it through the day
Wild eyed and crazy all burnt out of thinkin'
Wonderin' how the hell I's gonna say

Goodbye Marie oh goodbye Marie
Out the window there's a lonesome highway calling me
It was fun Marie I gotta run Marie
If I cannot keep your love at least I'll have your memory
Goodbye Marie

Wakin' up beside you in the Tijuana mornin'
With that ocean breeze to keep us cool
Three weeks of lovin' twenty one nights of heaven
I stayed just long enough to be your fool

Is it goodbye Marie oh goodbye Marie...

Pour favor pour me one more tequila
I need all the courage I can find
This time tomorrow I'll be back in Houston
Thinking bout the girl I left behind

Oh goodbye Marie oh goodbye Marie...
Goodbye Marie oh goodbye Marie...
