History[edit]

Mario Paint[edit]

Mario Paint marks the first appearance of "Save & Load".

Mario Artist series[edit]

In Mario Artist: Paint Studio, Mario Artist: Talent Studio, and Mario Artist: Polygon Studio, arrangements of "Save & Load" play in their save and load screens. These arrangements are mostly similar between each other with only a few differences. Mario Artist: Communication Kit uses an unique track for its save and load screen instead.

Lyrics[edit]

Yo, this is Princess Daisy
You're listening to Super Mario Compact Disco
Kick it!

Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm

Yes, this is Mario Land
Super Mario the hero and Princess Daisy
A fine young lady
Rescue her, not maybe
But yes from the Koopa Troopa
Donkey Kong, Kinopio, yo
Hammer Bros. on a mission of harm
Save me with your charm

Oh, Mario
Oh
Save me with your charm

Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm

Inside pipes, triple heights
To rescue me from parasites
It's annoying, so he destroys them
Drops the shell and kicks them into coins
Then he chills, leaves them ill
Picks up Daisy, the fine young lady
No one can do me no harm
'Cause Mario's got the charm

Oh, Mario
Oh
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm

Save me with your charm
Oh, Mario
Oh, oh
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm

Through the trees, oceans, and woods
I know he'd save me if he could
He's the man of my dreams
True love, at least it seems
If he lost his final life
I'm so scared I won't be his wife
I feel so safe within his arms
Oh, Mario, save me with your charm

Oh, Mario
Oh
Save me with your charm

Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm
Save me with your charm

Oh
Oh
