Me And Mary Poem by BRUCE MARTONE

ME AND MARY SITING ON THE SWINGS
DRINKING WARM BEER
IN THE SOFT SUMMER RAIN
JUST WATCHING THE WORLD PASS US BY
THAN DAY BECAME NIGHT
THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE TO SAY
ACCEPT GOOD NIGHT
THAN WE KISS UNDER THE STREET LIGHT
NOW I GO TO CATCH THE BUS
AS THE RAIN FALL HARDER
I START THINKING ABOUT US
AND HOW MUCH WE MEAN TO EACH OTHER
AND SWEARING ONE DAY WILL FIND AWAY OUT
NOW WE GOT JOBS AT ROY PLACE
SERVING MEALS ALL DAY
AND SMELLING OF GREASE ON ARE FACE
BUT SAVING UP TO FOR FILL ARE DREAMS
AND GET OUT OF TOWN AND
HAVE ARE OWN SPACE
NOW SCHOOL STARTING
AS WE KISS THE SUMMER AWAY
AND HELLO TO THE FALL
NOW STILL THINKING
ABOUT EACH OTHER
AND WANTING CLASS TO END
SO WE CAN GO TO ARE SPECIAL PLACE
AND HANG OUT WITH ARE FRIENDS
NOW MARY WENT TO COLLEGE
SOME WHERE OUT WEST
AND I'M WORKING FIXING CARS
A TRADE I KNOW BEST
NOW MARY WORK FOR A LAW FIRM
SOME WHERE UP TOWN
AND WHEN I SIT DOWN SIPPING MY BEER
I THINK BACK TO
ME AND MARY ON THE SWINGS
DRINKING WARM BEER
IN THE SOFT SUMMER RAIN
JUST LETTING THE WORLD PASS US BY
THAN DAY BECAME NIGHT
THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE TO SAY
ACCEPT SAY GOODNIGHT
