about

A sax-wailing, ivory ticklin', toe-tappin', show-tune-adjacent rock n roll romp about the beauty of monogamy with a lady named Polly Ann Marie.

lyrics

Well my Daddy was very young
When he married his only one
And he said “Son, you know I love your mama very much”
But there’s just so many beautiful girls
At least a million in this world
Can’t let your mama catch me lookin’ and I damn sure better not touch

And when I grew up to become a man
I made myself a very simple plan
I’d make my way around from town to town
Just a questin’ for a fresh ‘un with a blessin’ for undressin’ and impressin’ when a messin’ around
Yeah, she got the recipe down

Good Golly Polly Ann Marie
You’re the only one that I can see
For me
Yeah you’re the only one it’s gotta be
Why should I wreck some woman’s life
When I can make some lady’s night
It’s alright
My Polly Ann Marie

Now all my closest friends
Their wild days are at an end
And I been
Thinkin’ bout it now and then
And I might try to pretend
That I never ever wonder when
I’ll spend my life with a woman on whom I can depend

But I just can’t ever see a time
When I’ll make up my one track mind
When there’s a black haired, brunette, redhead and blonde
For a pettin’ and a beddin’ never headed for a weddin’
Just a bettin’ on gettin’ it on
Steppin’ and forgettin’ and gone

Good Golly Polly Ann Marie
You’re the only one that I can see
For me
Yeah you’re the only one it’s gotta be
Why should I wreck some woman’s life
When I can make some lady’s night
It’s alright
My Polly Ann Marie
