Maria, Maria

She was fine, the girl was from the projects
She had long brown hair and a body beyond compare
She had a boyfriend, a drug dealer
But I didn`t mind, `cause she wanted to be with me
So we have to set her free

And when I hear her name, I swear, I hear the wind blow
It drives me insane, I`ll never let her go
And I start to laugh `cause I`m so afraid of crying
And I`m dying to see her once more

Maria, the most beautiful song I ever heard
Maria, don`t tell your boyfriend how I feel about you
`Cause I need you and I gotta make you mine
I`ve got to make you mine

Wouldn`t it be cool, if we got together?
I`ll show you that I love you then you`d understand
If he`s a drug dealer, don`t you know that he won`t last forever?
And you need the affections of a normal man

And when I see your name, I swear, I hear the wind blow
It drives me insane, I`ll never let you go
And I start to laugh `cause I`m so afraid of crying
And I`m dying to see you once more

Maria, the most beautiful song I ever heard
Maria, don`t tell your boyfriend how I feel about you
`Cause I need you and I gotta make you mine
I`ve got to make you mine

Maria, the most beautiful song I ever heard
Maria, don`t tell your boyfriend how I feel about you
`Cause I need you and I gotta make you mine
I`ve got to make you mine

Mine, m-m-mine, m-m-mine, m-m-mine
Got to make you mine, m-m-mine
Maria, m-m-mine, got to make you
