My Maria, don't you know [bad word] a long, long way?
I been longing to see her;
when she's around she takes my blues away.
Sweet Maria, the sunlight surely hurts my eyes.
I'm a lonely dreamer on a highway in the sky.

 [bad word] 
Maria
(Oh Maria, I love you girl, oh my Maria.)
Maria
(Oh Maria, I love you girl, Maria I love you.)
My Maria, there were some blue and sorrow times.
Just my thoughts about you bring back my peace of mind.
Gypsy Lady, you're a miracle work for me.
You set my soul free like a ship sailin' on the sea.
She is the sunlight when the skies are gray.
She treats me so right. Lady, take me away.
