Give Us Your Blessing

Run, run, run
Mary, run, run, run
Jimmy, run, run, run
Mary, run, run, run

Mary and Jimmy were both very young
But as much in love as two people could be
And all they wanted
Is to be together
And share that love eternally

They went to their folks they told them
That someday soon they'd be wed
Their folks just laughed
And called them kids
So Mary said
"Give us your blessings
Please don't make us run away (Run away)
Give us your blessings
Say you'll be there
On our wedding day"

They wouldn't have laughed at Mary
If they could have seen through the door
But Jimmy was waiting in the car
But she begged them just once more
"Give us your blessing
Please don't make us run away
Give us your blessing
Say you'll be there on our wedding day"

Well as they drove off
They were crying
And nobody knows for sure
If that is why they didn't see
The sign that read detour

The next day, when they found them
Mary and Jimmy were dead
And as their folks knelt beside them in the rain
They couldn't help but hear
The last words that Mary and Jimmy had said

"Give us your blessings
Please don't make us run away
Give us your blessings
Say you'll be there
On our wedding day"

Run, run, run
Mary, run, run, run
Jimmy, run, run, run (Give us your blessings)
Mary, run, run, run (On our wedding day)
Jimmy, run, run, run (Give us your blessings)
Mary, run, run, run (On our wedding day)
Jimmy, run, run, run (Give us your blessing)
