Clary Mae

[Verse 1]
Now your mom is mad, and your dad is too
They think that I'd break your heart in two
They wanna pull you close, they wanna take you away
To a better life and a brighter day
They're gonna take you away, Clary Mae

[Chorus]
Pack up your bags, be ready
I'm gonna head out later on today
Sit on the seat beside me, no use in tryin' to hide your love away
There's a better life, I wanna show you the way, Clary Mae

[Verse 2]
I wanna take you down into town tonight
You won't believe your eyes in the pretty lights
No dirt on your shoes, 'cause the streets are paved
I got some friends in town, I got some money saved
I wanna show you around, Clary Mae

[Chorus]
Pack up your bags, be ready
I'm gonna head out later on today
Sit on the seat beside me, no use in tryin' to hide your love away
There's a better life, I wanna show you the way, Clary Mae

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]
No field to plow, no crop to raise
A roof over our head, I got a job that pays
I'll bring you fancy clothes, and a diamond ring
Let your old life die, let your new world sing
I wanna take you away, Clary Mae

[Chorus]
Pack up your bags, be ready
I'm gonna head out later on today
Sit on the seat beside me, no use to try to hide your love away
There's a better life, I wanna show you the way
I wanna pull you close, I wanna take you away, Clary Mae
