Sweet Marie

I have really no idea why this (music and lyrics) popped into my head driving around in a jeep through the Corbett National Park in the foothills of the Himalayas looking for tigers… but there you go

words and music by Martin Stirrup 2006


A D
Sweet Marie she’s a killer
A D
Seargent major wants to drill her
D C D
She’ll take orders for your final fling
A G A
You’ll be standing to attention when she does her thing

Sweet Marie she’s a floozie
Ecstasy if you’re not too choosey
She likes the way the brassman plays with his horn
You can’t blame her it’s the way that she was born

Sweet Marie she’s no willow
Ecstasy by the kilo
You’d love to watch her fill her face
It’s just a natural pleasure of all the human race

Sweet Marie’s getting older
All that wear and tear is starting to show now
But if she comes at you, you’ll have no defence
Just put it down to all that experience
