He talked and taught, and I heard him say That she had the longest blackest hair And the prettiest green eyes anywhere And the reasonin’ of his latest flame
Even though I smiled, the tears inside Were all burnin’ I wished him luck, and then he said goodbye He was gone, but still his words kept returnin’ What else was there for me to do but cry

Lyrics
A very old friend came by today
‘Cause he was telling everyone in town
Of the love that he’d just found
And Marie’s the name of his latest flame
He talked and talked and I heard him say
That she had the longest blackest hair
The prettiest green eyes anywhere
And Marie’s the name of his latest flame
Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
He was gone but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do but cry
Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
She’d be mine eternally
And Marie’s the name of his latest flame
Though I smiled the tears inside were a-burning
I wished him luck and then he said goodbye
He was gone but still his words kept returning
What else was there for me to do but cry
Would you believe that yesterday
This girl was in my arms and swore to me
She’d be mine eternally
And Marie’s the name of his latest flame
Yeah Marie’s the name of his latest flame
Oh Marie’s the name of his latest flame
