   playing guitar on the back porch
   I sit in my car
  
   While she sings so sad

   It's so lonely in the farmlands
  
   Please come with me
   To the bright lights downtown

   Don't you understand
  
   I just want to be your loving man.

   The sun is down in the cornfield
  
   The evening is dark
   And you sing so sad
  
   Marie
