Chuck Berry Picture
Charles Edward Anderson "Chuck" Berry (born October 18, 1926) is an immensely influential American guitarist, singer, and composer, and one of the pioneers of rock & roll music. Berry was born in St. Louis, Missouri and was part of the first group to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on its opening in 1986. Though playing what was considered Rhythm & Blues (R & B), in retrospect Berry is now seen by many as more of a rockabilly (rather than R & B) singer. However, he was the real poet of 1950s rock 'n' roll.

Little Marie Lyrics

Chuck Berry

Yes, oh yes, Long Distance, Ill accept the charge, Ill pay
Which love one is calling me, I did not hear you say.
Both are deep within my hearth, her Mom and my Marie
Its so good to hear your voice from Memphis, Tennessee

Oh, you mean so much to me, more than youll ever know,
Surely, you have not forgot how much I love you so
If you would remember, Dear, and sometimes talk to me
Maybe that would reunite our home in Tennessee.

Last time I saw you, just before I had to leave
You did not want to see me off and promised not to grieve,
My hearth was tore apart as I looked back at my Marie
And there the peace is still remain with you in Tennessee.

I guess I should stop talking; after all you placed the call
But anyway that I can help, you know Ill help you all
Then she spoke and asked me to come back and see Marie
And live together in our home in Memphis, Tennessee.
