Hello Mary Lou - Ricky Nelson tribute (cover)

Cover version by Pequinito.
Words and music by Gene Pitney / Cayet Mangiaracina
Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you
I knew, Mary Lou, we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
And ooh, I wanted you forevermore
Now I'm not one that gets around
Swear my feet stuck to the ground
And though I never did meet you before
I said...Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you
I knew, Mary Lou, we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
---instrumental---
I saw your lips, I heard your voice
Believe me, I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
I thought about a moonlit night
Arms around you good and tight
That's all I had to see for me to say
Hey hey...Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou, I'm so in love with you
I knew, Mary Lou, we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Yes, hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart.
