Too bad I never got to know you

I never got to check how much she's like you

For all I know is the picture in the window

But I can't even tell that your eyes are blue

She says that you might've liked me

And that we would've had something to talk about

I wanna take your little girl and make her happy

But how can I be sure that I'm allowed

So Mary, Mary, Mary

Let me ask you for your daughter's hand

To marry, marry, marry me

Oh, could you make it rain if you understand

We visited your stone day after Christmas

We had to wipe the snow off to clearly see

And as she laid her head down on my shoulder

I saw all I know 'bout you is her grief

So Mary, Mary, Mary

Let me ask you for your daughter's hand

To marry, marry, marry me

Oh, could you make it rain if you understand

So Mary, Mary, Mary

Let me ask you for your daughter's hand

To marry, marry, marry me

Oh, could you make it rain if you understand

Could you make it rain if you understand

Oh, could you make it rain

If you understand
