Lyrics

Worked for ten thousand days
Waited ten thousand nights
Found myself a lover
Named our only child

Sifted the earth deep and wide
To pile up mountains of gold
I thought to unload
‘neath your bellowing eyes

How impetuous of me
Bore this fallacy
Only not to stupefy

Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria you were right

Treaded through acres of snow
To bring you my love yond your door
I could not find the words
To reveal my disguise

Take my life
Take one, two, three
How impetuous of me
Why bear such a fallacy

Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria you were right

How was I to know
What a macabre curtain call
Would pry, coil ‘round and swallow
All divide

Worked for ten thousand days
Waited ten thousand nights
Found myself a lover
Named our only child

How impetuous of me
Bore this fallacy
Only not to stupefy

Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria you were right

Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria you were right

Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Oh Maria you were right
