[Verse 1]

Oh, Marie, I know I'm gonna be sorry

You made me feel I was supposed to be

Oh, Marie, just because you carry

Doesn't mean that I'm gonna settle down and marry

[Hook]

Ma-Ma-Ma-Ma-Ma-Marie

Good times and memories

You do as you please

Better take good care of our kid

'Cause I don't think that I'ma be there to do it

[Verse 2]

Oh, Marie, you have a wonderful fantasy

You made a find of me, but I'm not the man you need

Oh, Marie, you'll take it away from me

It's something I wanted to be, but not when I'm twenty-three

[Bridge]

This ain't how I planned it to be

We had a deal but you disagreed

This ain't how I planned it to be

We had a deal but you disagreed

[Hook]

Ma-Ma-Ma-Ma-Ma-Marie

Good times and memories

You do as you please

Better take good care of our kid

'Cause I don't think that I'ma be there to do it
