I see that we've been joined by a second mary, distinguishable from the first by the initial lower case.
You're very welcome, mary: please tell us something about yourself.
Ron.

Warm greetings, mary!  "Her name was Mary, Mary, plain as any name can be; but in society, propriety, it's a grand old name! (either upper or lower case) Courtesy of George M Cohan |

What are you waiting for,
What are you waiting for, Mary?
What are you thinking 'bout,
Who are you thinking 'bout, Mary?
The bees are buzzing, they're buzzing right in my ear,
And they keep on asking,
"Hey, what's the big idea?"
Think of the moon above,
Doesn't it speak of love, Mary?
Why do you lead me on,
Why do you be so contrary?
You wouldn't let my castle come tum-tum-tumbling down,
Think of the things in store,
What are you waiting for, Mary?
(music and lyrics Walter Donaldson)
recorded, most famously, by the Paul Whiteman Orchestra, with vocals by Bing Crosby (25 Nov. 1927)

Tell me about it Mort, I've just (still) been singing that Bing Crosby 'Mary' in the loo. It's also famed for featuring Bix Beiderbecke on cornet, KingKennytone will know, maybe |

I didn't know that one John, Cheers. Walter Donaldson of 'My Buddy' fame, yes? Tad more upbeat in this one.
