Little Mara Lee always sings so sweet On the banks of the river running through downtown A show tonight with sweet sweet sounds Crossed to Tennessee But it's sweet sweet Mara Lee Whose voice is calling me back home To the banks of the river where I belong And all there is is one last song Now the band is giving it their all She says these are the best of days Won't you stay and dance with me awhile Little Mara Lee always sings so sweet The pain in your heart is rock and roll The tears in your eyes is rock and roll Little Mara Lee always sings so sweet The blood in your veins is rock and roll The kiss of your lips is rock and roll She says these are the best of days She says these are the best of days She says these are the best of days
