《The Card》歌词

[00:00:03] Father puts an ad on the personal page

[00:00:32] The print is black and clear

[00:00:34] Saying Mary please write

[00:00:35] Please don't drop out of site

[00:00:37] Mary we love you dear

[00:00:38] Mary we want you here

[00:00:39] Oh Mary why did you disappear

[00:00:41] Mother sits at home by the telephone

[00:00:42] Her tears won't cease to flow

[00:00:44] Praying Mary will call

[00:00:45] But there's no call at all

[00:00:47] Mary where did you go

[00:00:48] That's all we want to know

[00:00:49] Oh Mary call us and say hello

[00:00:51] Meanwhile in the city

[00:00:51] Mary looks pretty

[00:00:52] Eating an ice cream cone

[00:00:53] With her childhood past

[00:00:55] She's free at last

[00:00:56] And making it on her own Jimmy puts an ad on the personal page

[00:01:00] He can't believe they're through

[00:01:01] Darling I was so blind

[00:01:02] But I'm changing my mind

[00:01:03] Mary I'll marry you

[00:01:04] Just like you want me to

[00:01:05] We'll do whatever you want to do

[00:01:07] When the ads are in and the type is set

[00:01:09] The printer makes a plate

[00:01:11] Then it goes off to press

[00:01:42] Will the ad bring success

[00:01:43] Jimmy can hardly wait

[00:01:44] Mother is in a state

[00:01:46] They still don't know that it's much too late

[00:01:48] Mary the escaper picks up a paper

[00:01:49] Reads what the columns say

[00:01:50] Walking through a crowd she laughs out loud

[00:01:52] And tosses the sheet away

[00:02:05] Laughter
