Lyrics

  1. You can talk about your love affairs
    Here’s one I must tell to you
    All night long they sit up on the stairs
    He holds her close and starts to coo

Chorus
“My little Margie, I’m always thinking of you, Margie
I’ll tell the world I love you, don’t forget your promise to me
I have bought a home and ring and everything, for
Margie, you’ve been my inspiration, days are never blue
After all is said and done, there is really only one
Oh! Margie, Margie, it’s you”

  1. You can picture me most every night
    I can’t wait until they start
    Everything he says just seems all right
    I want to learn that stuff by heart
