Hello Mary Lou, Goodbye Heart [#] Lyrics

Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you.
I knew Mary Lou, wed never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart.
You passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
And oh I wanted you for ever more.
Now I'm not one that's get around
I swear my feets stuck to the ground
And though I never did meet you before,
I said:
Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you.
I knew Mary Lou, wed never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart.
I saw your lips, I heard your voice
Believe me I just had no choice
Wild horses couldn't make me stay away
I thought about a moonlit night
My arms around you good and tight
That's all I had to see for me to say
Hey,hey,hey.
Hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you.
I knew Mary Lou, wed never part
So hello Mary Lou, goodbye heart.
So hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Well hello Mary Lou goodbye heart
Yes hello Mary Lou goodbye heart

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
