Mary and I were the perfect picture of love
|
But my world started spinnin' around
|
'Til it wasn't enough
|
I tried to hang on to the heaven she made just for me
|
But when I slipped and fell it drove her to hell
|
And lord knows that I hate to see
|
|
Mary go round, Mary go round
|
Mary I wish you'd stop takin' your heartache to town
|
Why can't you see, that free love ain't free
|
You'll spin 'til you fall to the ground
|
Mary I wish that you'd never found
|
The Mary go round
|
|
Nah she's not the first to discover the Devil's playground
|
But this ain't no game and these demons ain't playing around
|
They'll make her believe they
|
Can drain all her pain with a drink
|
And if she sinks below this burn in my soul
|
To watch them all laugh as they sing
|
|
Mary go round, Mary go round
|
Mary I wish you'd stop takin' your heartache to town
|
Why can't you see, that free love ain't free
|
You'll spin 'til you fall to the ground
|
Mary I wish that you'd never found
|
The Mary go round
|
|
You'll spin 'til you fall to the ground
|
Mary I curse the day that you found
|
The Mary go round
|

Mary Go Round
