Lyrics Loudon Wainwright III

Loudon Wainwright III

Central Square Song

Mary Maguire and Big Frank Clarke

Got drunk again last night

I was waiting for my bus when they happened along

Man, it was a beautiful sight

Mary was laughing, singing a tune

Acting like a teenage kid

She kept shouting to Frank, ‘Honey, I don't care!'

I don't think she did

Frank was grinning from ear to ear

Two six packs under his arm

Late last night he was a happy man

Nobody could do him no harm

The two of them stumbled across South Main

On the Baptist Church steps, they sat

Friendly frosties was poppin'

Empty cans was droppin'

Then Mary, she snatched Frank's hat

Frank grabbed Mary by the ponytail

He poured beer down the front of her dress

He kissed her on the mouth, he threw her on the ground

He just loves her that way I guess

He picked her up, he wiped her off

She giggled and she gave him her hand

The two of them staggered off into the night

Like the King and the Queen of the land

Mary Maguire and Big Frank Clarke

Got drunk again last night

I was waiting for my bus when they happened along

Man, it was a beautiful sight
