John Rowles - Hush, Not A Word To Mar
JOHN ROWLES - HUSH, NOT A WORD TO MARY
(M. Murray; P. Callander)
Stateside HSS 1288

Hush, not a word to Mary
She means the world to me
Don't wanna lose her

Oh, hush not a word to Mary
Don't let her know
I stayed here with you

Mary's gone visiting all the folks at home
Kind of you to ask me around, knowing I'm alone
A cigarette, a glass of wine
A little homeless fun
A cosy chat about this and that
Never could hurt anyone

Oh, hush not a word to Mary
She may not understand
And she may worry

Oh, hush not a word to Mary
Don't want her crying
Over nothing at all

Mary does everything
Keeping me in mind
Loving me so faithfully
That constantly I find

I think of her and long for her
When she's not around
I love her so, I'm sure you know
I never could let her down

So, hush not a word to Mary
Don't wanna break her heart
All over nothing

Oh, hush not a word to Mary
Show me the door it's time
I went home
