Featuring Ernie Hendrickson on guitar, this song is a story about the whimsical dating life of a girl named Mary.

lyrics

Mary’s got a boyfriend. She says his name is Bill
He moved her to the country, up on a great big hill.
Well, she didn’t like the quiet or the settling down
So, Mary’s on her way to a boy uptown

Now Mary’s got a boyfriend. She says his name is Dave
He’s just another lone free bird who doesn’t care to shave
Well he doesn’t have a penny, and she likes her fine wine
So Mary’s on her way on down the line

Cause Mary’s got a boyfriend in every state
Mary’s got a boyfriend sneaking out late
She’s always looking for something new
You better look out Mary’s coming for you

So now, Mary’s got a boyfriend. She met him online
It hurt her when she found out he already has wife
Well she never even met him, but it hurts just the same
So mary got a boyfriend to ease her pain

Now Mary’s new boyfriend, yea she swears that he’s the one.
He likes to watch the movies and have a little fun
Well he treats her like a lady, and she thought that’d be enough
But Mary’s already filling up the truck

Cause Mary’s got a boyfriend to pass the time
Mary’s got boyfriends waiting in line
She’s always looking for something new
Oh you better look out Mary’s coming for you

She’ll get you when you’re sleeping in the night
She’s faster than the speed of light
No man is safe. What can you do?
Oh you better look out Mary’s coming for you

Now Mary’s got a boyfriend. He’s a classy, lawyer type
He’s tall and good looking, but she doesn’t get the hype
Well, he may be smart to some, but to her, he’s a game
And according to Mary they’re all the same

Cause Mary’s got a boyfriend in every town. She never plans on sticking around
She’ll love you till your time is through. You better look out Mary’s coming for you

There’s nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Her hunting ground is nationwide.
No man is safe. What can you do? Oh you better look out Mary’s coming for you.
Oh you better look out, Mary’s coming for you. Oh you better look out, Mary’s coming for you.
