Testi musica canzoni

These are the words of a frontier lad
Who lost his love when he turned ba-ad

Take a message to Mary but don�t tell �er where I am
Take a message to Mary but don�t say I�m in a jam
You can tell her I had to see the world or tell �er that my ship set sail
You can say she better not wait for me but don�t tell her I�m in jail
Oh, don�t tell her I�m in jail

Take a message to Mary but don�t tell �er what I�ve done
Please don�t mention the stagecoach and the shot from a careless gun
You can tell her I had to change my plans and cancel out the wedding day
But please don�t mention my lonely cell where I�m gonna pine away
Until my dying day

Take a message to Mary but don�t tell �er all you know
My heart�s achin� for Mary, Lord knows I miss her so
Just tell her I went to Timbuktu, tell her I�m searchin� for gold
You can say she better find someone new to cherish and to hold
Oh, Lord, this cell is cold

Ma-ary, Ma-a-a-a-ary
Oh, Lord this cell is cold
