Mary maggie was having fun,
With the carpenter's son. oh, what had they done
What w3as it the people saw
Were they breaking the law by just lovin'

(chorus)
Though blamed by the law
Let your flame burn bright, 'cause
In the name of love, you've got the right

She was the bad girl in the neighborhood
She could do no good, but he loved her
Can't judg'em by the way they look
Just like you can't judge a book by it's cover

(repeat chorus)

(repeat chorus)

You've got the right !
