MARY LOU

Words and music by Winston Apple

Hey Mary Lou, do you wanna come out tonight?
I just got paid, I can show you a real good time
We could go down to the bay and watch the moon come up
Blow smoke rings at it from the back of my truck
Hey Mary Lou, do you wanna come out tonight?

Everybody knows Bobby Joe done broke your heart
He took off for L. A. said he's gonna be a movie star
Well, don't you know that you can be a movie star too?
We can make our own movie starring me and you
We'll call it "Mary Lou and Gary - Taking the Town Apart"

If you feel like dancing, we can dance by the light of the moon
And if you're looking for romance, I can bring along a couple of spoons
It may be nearly December, but we can pretend that it's June
Tell me, do you remember the last time
Anybody dared to rhyme "moon" and "June" and "spoon?"
I think we've waited long enough

Hey Mary Lou, do you wanna come out tonight?
You know I just got paid, I've been spending my money right
So won't you just slip into your best blue-jean dress?
The one with the sequins and the matching vest
And you and me gonna have some fun tonight
I say, "Hey Mary Lou, won't you come on out tonight?"
I said, "Hey Mary Lou, do you wanna come out tonight?"
