Maria (About The Successful Emotional Recovery Of A Gal Named Maria) Songtext / Lyric

Early in the morning she wakes up

She winds her heart around this game

The radio machine is a playing

A song comes on and calls her name



It goes:



"Hey Maria

Stop what you do

Be proud to be ya

If I was in your shoes

Baby I'd get rid of all these blues"



Now she wanna face the facts

And try to make a stand

And to walk that track

'Till the bitter end

They say joy never leaves you

So why would you wanna stay and tease?

Why would you even worry about it?






And I ain't stupid

If that's what you heard

My deeds will prove it

You mark my words

I'm the greatest girl upon this earth



Maria I'm beautiful

Maria I'm adorable

Maria I'm sexual

Maria but respectable

Maria that's me



Early in the morning she wakes up

She plants a seed and says a prayer

And people they talk talk talk

But she can't hear what they're saying



Here's a message

I finally heard

I can see my future

Stickin' out of the dirt

Now I know just what that's worth
