Run, run, run,
Mary, run, run, run,
Jimmy, run, run, run,
Mary, run, run, run,
Mary and Jimmy, were both very young.
But as much in love,as two people could be.
And all they wanted,
Was to be together and share that love eternally.
They went to their folks and told them,
That someday soon they'd be wed.
Their folks just laughed,
And called them kids
So Mary said...
(Give us your blessing,
Please don't make us run away...(run away)
Give us your blessing,
Say you'll be there on our wedding day.)
They wouldn't have laughed at Mary.
If they could have seen through the door.
'cause Jimmy was waiting in the car.
While she begged them just once more.
Give us your blessing.
Please don't make us run away...(run away)
Give us your blessing,
Say you'll be there, on our wedding day.
Well as they drove off they were crying.
and nobody knows for sure.
If, that is why they didn't see .
the sign that read detour.
The next day When they found them.
Mary and Jimmy were dead.
and as their folks,
Knelt beside them in the rain.
They couldn't help but hear.
The last words that mary had said.
"Give us your blessing,
please don't make us run away...(run away)
Give us your blessing,
Say you'll be there on our wedding day"
