Cherry Hill Park Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mary Hill used to hang out in Cherry Hill Park
The game she played lasted all day 'til way after dark
All the girls they criticized her
But all the guys just idolized her
'Cause Mary Hill was such a thrill after dark
In Cherry Hill Park

[Verse 2]
Mary Hill loved to ride on the merry-go-round
All the guys got eager eyes watchin' Mary go 'round
In the daytime Mary Hill was a teaser
Come the night she was such a pleaser
Oh, Mary Hill was such a thrill after dark
In Cherry Hill Park

[Chorus]
Oh, Mary Hill sure was fun down at Cherry Hill Park
Playin' games with everyone 'til way after dark
(Cherry Hill Park, Cherry Hill Park)

[Verse 3]
And then one day, Mary Hill, she married away
A man with money said, "Come on honey", and she said, "OK"
She went away to play a one-man game
And since that day it ain't been the same
'Cause Mary Hill was such a thrill after dark
Down in Cherry Hill Park
[Chorus]
Ah, Mary Hill sure was fun down at Cherry Hill Park
Playin' games with everyone 'til way after dark
In Cherry Hill Park (Cherry Hill Park)

[Outro]
In Cherry Hill Park (Cherry Hill Park)
Whoa, Cherry Hill Park, yeah (Cherry Hill Park)
Talkin' 'bout Cherry Hill Park (Cherry Hill Park)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
