[00:24.65]mary, carry your babe
[00:27.60]bound up tight like lips around a whimper
[00:29.62]your fingers over my face
[00:33.29]blind eyed Samson driven to the temple
[00:36.05]and night birds digging until dawn
[00:39.55]freedom hangs like heaven over everyone
[00:42.45]ain't nobody knows what the newborn holds
[00:45.30]but his mama says he'll walk on water
[00:47.06]and wander back home
[01:24.59]mary, carry your shame
[01:27.55]well past all those eyes across the avenue
[01:30.51]fish heads running from rain
[01:33.29]you know i'll do anything you want me to
[01:36.31]lamp oil lovers may say
[01:39.11]freedom hangs like heaven over everyone
[01:42.34]ain't nobody knows what the newborn holds
[01:45.14]but his papa's going to hide shaking gristle
[01:47.43]and shaking like bone
[02:24.50]mary, carry my name
[02:27.44]hoof marks hacked up all i had to offer you
[02:30.32]looked all over this place
[02:33.16]lost your portrait lately when the winter blew
[02:36.26]in like herod and them
[02:39.28]freedom hangs like heaven over everyone
[02:42.30]ain't nobody knows what the newborn holds
[02:45.08]but a dollar says he'll lick that devil
[02:47.59]and do it alone
