Lyrics

Tide is rising; that’s cause of moon
Those purple flowers protect the dune
Life in the ocean, an organic stew
And how do I fit in? What do I do?

Trees make colors; give home to those birds
Cows make milk which can turn into curds
These wonderful creatures, the old and the new
And how do I fit in? What do I do? What do I do?
I must have a purpose. What do I do?

I dig Marie. I dig Marie
I dig Marie. I dig Marie
A natural beauty, I hope she digs me
I dig Marie. I dig Marie

The ferry captain tows folks over there
And on their arrival, they do as they dare
The baker makes donuts the brewer makes brew
Each has a purpose. I know I do too

I dig Marie. I dig Marie
I dig Marie. I dig Marie

Wren’s gathering twigs for a bird’s nest
The river captain ferries those folks there
I’ve arrived at the answer to my purpose
I’ll go with Marie anywhere

I dig Marie. I dig Marie
I dig Marie. I dig Marie
A natural beauty, I hope she digs me
I dig Marie. I dig Marie

I dig Marie. I dig Marie
I dig Marie. I dig Marie
I dig Marie. I dig Marie
I dig Marie. I dig Marie
