Black Lace Mary Ann Lyrics

Out on a late night, way after midnight
Armed with a bottle or two
What's the time?
I'm getting out of my mind
I've gotta get to you
She was in black lace
"Come back to my place
"Come for a drink and a dance"
Boy, I found she didn't hang around
I didn't stand a chance
She paid a big rent for an apartment
Uptown One-twenty-one
She said "Come inside, I've got nothing to hide
I only want some fun"
Having a good time walking a tight line
I was out of my head
And when I reached for you, like I usually do
I found her instead

Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
But I can't do more than try
Tearing my heart out trying to make it up to you
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
That's truth, and that's no lie
Crying my eyes out, gotta get it back with you

I woke up early with everything blurry
And my head rattled with pain
Even so, I heard the doorbell go And someone call my name
There was her best friend down for the weekend
I knew I'd met her before
She said "You dirty man"
"When I see Mary Ann, I'm gonna tell her the score"

Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
But I can't do more than try
Tearing my heart out trying to make it up to you
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
That's truth, and that's no lie
Crying my eyes out, gotta get it back with you

Out on a late night way after midnight
Armed with a bottle or two
What's the time?
I'm getting out of my mind
I've got to get to you

Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
But I can't do more than try
Tearing my heart out trying to make it up to you
Mary Ann, I'm gonna do what I can
That's truth, and that's no lie
Crying my eyes out, gotta get it back with you
Crying my eyes out, gotta get it back with you
