Marie Lyricsby Steve Earle Buy album CD: Townes I stood in line and left my name Took about six hours or so Well, the man just grinned like it was all a game Said they'd let me know I put in my time till the Pocono line Shut down two years ago I was staying at the mission till I met Marie Now I can't stay there no more Fella 'cross town said he's lookin' for a man To move some old cars around Maybe me and Marie could find a burned out van And do a little settlin' down But I'm just dreamin', I ain't got no ride And the junkyard's a pretty good ways That job's about a half a week old besides We'd be gone anyway Unemployment said I got no more checks They showed me to the hall My brother died in Georgia some time ago Got no one left to call The summer wasn't bad below the bridge A little short on food that's all Now I gotta get Marie some kind of coat We're headed down in the fall I used to play the mouth harp pretty good Hustled up a little dough But I got drunk and I woke up rolled A couple of months ago Well, they got my harp, got my dollar Them low life so and so's Harps cost money and I ain't got it It's my own fault I suppose Well, the Pocono's down but the Chesapeake's runnin' Two freights everyday If it was just me I'd be headed south But Marie can't catch no train Well, she's got some pain and she thinks it's a baby Says we gotta wait and see In my heart I knew it's a little boy Hope he don't end up like me Well, the man's still grinnin', says he lost my file Gotta stand in line again I wanna to kill him but I just say no Had enough of that line my friend Headed back to the bridge, it's getting kinda cold Feelin' too low down to lie I guess I have to tell Marie the truth Hope she don't break down and cry Well, Marie she didn't wake up this morning Didn't even try Just rolled over and went to heaven My little boy safe inside Well, I laid them in the sun where somebody'd find them Caught a Chesapeake on the fly Marie will know I'm headed south So's to meet me by and by Marie will know I'm headed south So's to meet me by and by
