Give Us Your Blessings - The Shangri-Las

作词：Jeff Barry/Ellie Greenwich

作曲：Jeff Barry/Ellie Greenwich

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

It's to be together

Was to share that love eternally

They went to their folks they 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

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

But jimmy was waiting in the car

While Mary begged once more

Give us your blessing

Please don't make us 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

That that's why they didn't see the sign

That read detour

The next day 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

Give us your blessing

Say you'll be there on our wedding day

Run run run

Mary run run run

Jimmy run run run

Mary run run run

Jimmy run run run

Mary run run run
