when you where little Mary
you use to love the sea
now you are grown up Mary
now you like Marines
I’m gonna say hello
you’re gonna say good-bye
oh won’t you tell me a good reason why
you’re gonna say hello
I’m gonna say good-bye
oh won’t you tell me a good reason why
you are really slick, senorita
you are really silk, senorita
you are really sick, senorita
you are really sweet, senorita
it’s beautiful to live by the sea
it’s beautiful to live by those men
bringing back jewels
from the southern seas
all washed by the salt and the sun
all washed in the perfumes and spices
from the far oceans
all those Marines
bring your web-cams
bring your digital cameras
let my naked body go all around the world
