Mary works in the kitchen, Mary works at the bar She's never been across the ocean, she's never been across the sea Mary, if you're listening, take the toke for me Sometimes on a Sunday afternoon, I drive down to Mary's cafe We just sit and watch her joy cook and drink the hours away Me and Mary, we like it this way Someday when I find the money, someday when I get the time I'm gonna buy me and Mary two tickets on that big old jetty line And we'll sail across the ocean looking for the recipe You know someday me and Mary are gonna be up on that TV She's got Shepard's pie on the menu, brisket and cornbread She's got home made gin in the back room from grandmas Recipe Mary's got it all, she's even got toast and tea Sometimes Mary's sister Susie, she stops by and says What you doing up so late We just say, we just watching the Julia Child reruns on Channel 38 Pull up a chair, fix yourself a plate Someday when I find the money, someday when I get the time I'm gonna buy me and Mary two tickets on that big old jetty line And we'll sail across the ocean looking for the recipe You know someday me and Mary are gonna be up on that TV Crazy moon peeking through the window, shooting stars falling from the sky It's closing time at Mary's cafe, there's nothing left to fry Shut the burners down, put the jukebox on high Yeah, Mary works in the kitchen, Mary works in the bar She's never been across the ocean, she's never been across the sea Mary, if you're listening, take a toke from me Oh Mary, if you're listening, take a toke from me Oh Mary, if you're listening, take a toke from me
