Текст песни: Skinny Marie + перевод

Miscellaneous

Skinny Marie

She was just another girl, from a corner of my world, whose smile was so hard

to see

I’d always try to catch a glance as she would walk on past, she’d get lost if

she turned sideways on me

She was up from round the block where she had a loft with Carl and John for

four fifty

And every night she’d take a walk and end up at this little coffee shop where

she was known as Skinny Marie

Oh, Skinny Marie

When she went into that place, she had a certain style, a certain grace,

a certain kind of savoir-faire

And all the folks would gather round as she would joke and she would clown,

she really had them going in there

I would try to get real close and try to let my feelings show but,

it would come to no recourse

I just wanted her to see how much she meant to me and how our love could truly

be

Oh, Skinny Marie

We’d go out from time to time and see what trouble we could find,

we never really went nowhere

And one day she just drifted off and my whole world just seemed to stop,

it was like she was never there

I still hold out hope, trying to find ways to cope, thinking about things that

used to be

Like when she took that walk, down to that little coffee shop, where she was

known as Skinny Marie

Oh, Skinny Marie

Oh, Skinny Marie
