[Verse 1]
I can overhear you talkin' in your sleep
Where you dream there’s someone that you meet
After all this time, your love is a just a fake
Tell me this and show me that, give me a break
[Verse 2]
Masquerading like virgin at the ball
Ms. High Society, I see through it all
Lockin' your own cell, livin', lovin’, lyin'
Pull yourself together, baby, it's leavin' time
[Pre-Chorus]
Got no time for chasing you around
Won't be the talk of the town
[Chorus]
Sweet Maria
What have I gotta do?
Sweet Maria
I'm so in love with you
Sweet Maria
You know what they say
Every dog has his day
[Verse 3]
Now the time has come, we're done without a doubt
Save your sympathy, don't sit down, get out
Try to threaten me, I beckon for your touch
Sweet and spice and everything nice, don’t press your luck
[Pre-Chorus]
Got no time for chasing you around
Won’t be the talk of the town
[Chorus]
Sweet Maria
What have I gotta do?
Sweet Maria
I'm so in love with you
Sweet Maria
You know what they say
Every dog has his day
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Sweet Maria
What am I gonna do?
Sweet Maria
I’d leave you behind
Señorita
But I can't get you out of my mind
What have I gotta do?
Sweet Maria
I can't get next to you
Get next to you
Don't treat me this way
Sweet Maria
Every dog has his day
Sweet Maria
What am I gonna do?
Sweet Maria
’Cause I'm still in love with you
Señorita
Your love is just a fake
Give me a break
