[00:00.00]Take a Message to Mary - The Everly Brothers
[00:01.01]These are the words of a frontier lad
[00:05.55]Who lost his love
[00:08.90]When he turned bad
[00:18.18]Take a message to Mary
[00:21.68]But don't tell her where I am
[00:26.64]Take a message to Mary
[00:30.05]But don't say I'm in a jam
[00:33.97]You can tell her I had to see the world
[00:38.34]Or tell her that my ship set sail
[00:42.12]You can say she better not wait for me
[00:46.40]But don't tell her I'm in jail
[00:50.15]Oh don't tell her I'm in jail
[00:55.11]Take a message to Mary
[00:58.53]But don't tell her what I've done
[01:02.83]Please don't mention the stagecoach
[01:06.42]And the shot from a careless gun
[01:10.33]You can tell her I had to change my plans
[01:14.57]And cancel out the wedding day
[01:18.42]But please don't mention my lonely cell
[01:22.78]Where I'm gonna pine away
[01:26.46]Until my dying day
[01:31.64]Take a message to Mary
[01:34.88]But don't tell her all you know
[01:39.22]My heart's aching for Mary
[01:42.83]Lord knows I miss her so
[01:46.80]Just tell her I went to Timbuktu
[01:51.39]Tell her I'm searching for gold
[01:54.95]You can say she better find someone new
[01:59.25]To cherish and to hold
[02:03.01]Oh Lord this cell is cold
[02:07.60]Ma-ary
[02:11.70]Ma-a-a-a-ary
[02:15.29]Oh Lord this cell is cold
