Oh, restless sleeper
Don't fret, you still need her
It's not your fault, my dear

Marietta
I'll soon forget ya
Don't give me grief
You reckless thief
Get out my mind
Marietta

It's clear to see
We made a home
A makeshift throne
Down on Deveaux Street
And I still miss you sometimes

Marietta
I got used to you
You weren't that sweet
No beauty queen
But you were mine
Marietta
You hurricane

You promised me nights
Of starlit skies
But blew me away
And I still miss you sometimes
I still miss you sometimes

Home is where the heart is
Please just give back mine
It's not very often
But I still miss you sometimes

Marietta
I'll soon forget ya
And all that you'll be
Still in my dreams
Until I die
Marietta
