Hush, not a word to Mary She means the world to me Don't wanna lose her Oh, hush, not a word to Mary Don't let her know I stayed here with you Mary's gone visiting All the folks at home Kind of you to ask me around Knowing I'm alone A cigarette, a glass of wine A little homeless fun A cosy chat about this and that Never could hurt anyone Oh, hush, not a word to Mary She may not understand And she may worry Oh, hush, not a word to Mary Don't want her crying Over nothing at all Mary does everything Keeping me in mind Loving me so faithfully That constantly I find I think of her and long for her When she's not around I love her so, I'm sure you know I never could let her down So, hush, not a word to Mary Don't wanna break her heart All over nothing Oh, hush, not a word to Mary Show me the door It's time I went home
