Maria, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Maria
Maria, don't you hear me calling Maria
Maria, girl, you know you were the only one
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Maria
Maria, don't you miss me just a little
Maria, after all, you were the only one
Come on back to me, Maria
Maria, come on back to me, girl

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Maria
Maria, it's been long, so long
Maria, since you've been gone
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Maria
Maria, don't you need me just a little
Maria, 'cause honest, girl, you were the only one
(Maria) Come on back to me, Maria
Oh, come on back to me, girl (Maria)

Oh, Maria, oh, baby (Maria)
I need you, hmmm... hmmm... (Maria)
Maria, why (Maria) why do you keep runnin' away
Oh, baby, you keep runnin' away
(You keep running away)
Oh, baby, yeah
Maria, I need you, honey
Oh, Maria, you sweet little sunflower
Oh-oh, hear my plea for sympathy
I just want you here with me, Maria
Oooh-ooh, yeah, yeah
If you're on that lonely night

What's my life without you, girl
I'm so lonely, I'm so blue
Without you, darlin', my life is through
(Maria)
Come on back!

*
You keep runnin' away, come back, come back
(You) Oh, baby (Keep runnin' away)

(* Repeat with ad lib and fade)
