Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is me
Yeah I know I told you I'd be home by three
But you gotta believe me this is real
I got caught up in a business deal
And it's gonna be a little while 'fore I get back.
I've been sittin' here sippin' on a beer
And time slipped by man it sure does fly
I think I oughta go find me a telephone
And don't go messin' with my ten dollar stack
Just start a round and I'll be right back
Gotta put in the call see if I still got a home.
Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is me
Yeah I know I told you I'd be home by three
But you gotta believe me this is real
I got caught up in a business deal
And it's gonna be a little while 'fore I get back.
All right you guys I made my call
Let me lean back here up against the wall
Just deal them cards and make sure they're off the top
I don't know why but when I get in the game
Ain't nothin' on the outside looks the same
I guess I'm a gamblin' man that just can't stop.
Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is me
Yeah I know I told you I'd be home by three
But you gotta believe me this is real
I got caught up in a business deal
And it's gonna be a little while 'fore I get back.
Hello Mary (hello Mary) yeah this is Moe
Yeah I know I told you I'd be home long time ago...
