Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

Well your railroad gate
You know I just can't jump it
Sometimes it gets
So hard you see
I'm just sitting here
Beating on my trumpet
With all these promises
You left for me
But where are you tonight
Sweet Marie?

Well I waited for you
When I was half sick
Yes I waited for you
When you hated me
Well I waited for you
Inside of the frozen traffic
When you knew I had
Some other place to be
Now where are you tonight
Sweet Marie?

Well anybody can be
Just like me obviously
But then again not too many
Can be like you fortunately
Well six white horses
That you did promise
Where finally delivered
Down to the penitentiary
But to live outside the law
You must be honest
I know you always say
That you'll agree
But where are you tonight
Sweet Marie?

Well I don't know how it happened
But the river boat captain
He knows my fate
But ev'rybody else
Including yourself
Just gonna have to wait
Well I got the fever
Down in my pockets
The Persian drunkard
He follows me
Yes I can take him to your house
But I can't unlock it
You see you forgot to leave me
With the key
Oh where are you tonight
Sweet Marie?

I been in jail
When all my mail showed
That a man can't give his address out to
Bad company
And now I stand here
Lookin' at your yellowed railroad
In the ruins
Of your balcony
Wond'ring where are you tonight
Sweet Marie?
