[Verse 1] Oh, what a shocker, disarmed by a smile Oh, what a stunning quality Oh, what a vision, I thought by and by Near her's where I long to be [Verse 2] Walked on over and sat by her side Nervous as nervous can be Stuttered my name out, the fool that I was. She said her name was Marie. [Verse 3] Talked for a minute, I struggled to breathe For me 'twas not a common theme I turned to face her and asked for a dance. Surprised that she said aye to me. The night it went swimming, I said to me self . How now to manage this thing. Over and over I turned in me mind, What next to say to Marie Not to worry as she stepped up so close Stuttered my name back to me. So nice to meet you, can you walk me home? And that's how I met my Marie.
