Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller

But if she did
He'd a taken her to Paris
And if she did
She'd a smoked a lot of opium
And if she did
She'd a dyed her hair blue
And if she did
She might be alive

Oh-oh, Henry Miller
Oh-oh, Marilyn Monroe
Oh-oh, Henry Miller
Oh-oh, Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
She lived outside the Tropic of Capricorn
Marilyn Monroe didn't marry Henry Miller
I don't even know if she knew Henry Miller

But if she did
He'd a taken her to Paris
And if she did
They'd a fudged every day
And if she did
She'd a felt like a woman
Not a photograph
In a magazine

Oh-oh, Henry Miller
Oh-oh, Marilyn Monroe
Oh-oh, Henry Miller
Oh-oh, Marilyn Monroe

This is not a knock against Arthur Miller
Death of a Salesman is my favorite play
But Marilyn Monroe
Should have married Henry Miller
And if she did
She might be alive

Cause if she did
He'd have taken her to Paris
Tied her to the bed
And eaten dinner off of her
And okay maybe
She'd have died the same, anyway
But if she did
She'd a had more fun

Oh-oh, Henry Miller
Oh-oh, Marilyn Monroe
Oh-oh, Henry Miller
Oh-oh, Marilyn Monroe
