TERRY BROWN'S IN LOVE WITH MARY DEE
(Duke)


John Leyton - 1960




Just about three years ago
Two young folk, they met
They fell in love right there and then
Never to forget


Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee
Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee


Their love grew stronger hour by hour
The end of ev'ry day 
They'd kiss goodbye and with a smile 
To each other they would say


Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee
Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee


Then one day a letter came 
And in it Terry read
To serve his Country he must go
To leave Mary he would dread


The day's seemed weeks, the months seemed years
But Mary's love was strong
Then she found no letters came
But in her heart there was a sound


Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee
Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee


SPOKEN:
One afternoon, a telegram
"Meet me at the train at half-past-five"
Oh, Mary's heart was filled with joy
Was Terry still alive?


Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee
Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee


She ran down to the station
It was Terry standing there
She threw her arms around his neck
Their voices filled the air
Terry Brown's in love with Mary Dee
