| Oh when I first saw her she really stole my eye | |
| All alone on the corner while the mortals passed her by | |
| Towards me she came and offered me her name, and I | |
| I could barely say hello | |
| She asked for directions, I had something else in mind and I had to let her know | |
| Maria, Maria, Maria | |
| I got this crazy idea | |
| Let's take a chance you and me Oh Maria | |
| Maria, Maria, Maria | |
| cuz I just can't wait to see ya | |
| and I never want to leave ya Oh Maria | |
| She was new to the city so I showed her all the spots, | |
| like the bistro and my coffee shop | |
| and she looked so pretty and that shirt was kinda hot | |
| as it hung just round her shoulder | |
| I know it's a long shot and it could go wrong, oh I I've seen it all before | |
| She's just a girl, she wants to see the world, but I | |
| I got to let her know | |
| Maria, Maria, Maria | |
| I got this crazy idea | |
| Let's take a chance you and me Oh Maria | |
| Maria, Maria, Maria | |
| cuz I just can't wait to see ya | |
| and I never want to leave ya Oh Maria | |
| Oh Maria~~~ | |
| Cuz baby I've been listening and I really like your | |
| sound and maybe when my ship comes in, you'll be around | |
| Oh Maria | |
| Say love, say love, say love... |
