She lived on a curve in the road, in an old, tar-paper shack |
| [00:08.00] |
On the south side of the town, on the wrong side of the tracks |
| [00:16.00] |
Sometimes on the way into town we'd say: |
| [00:18.00] |
'Mama, can we stop and give her a ride?' |
| [00:22.00] |
Sometimes we did, but her hands flew from her side |
| [00:29.00] |
Wild eyed, crazy Mary |
| [00:51.00] |
Down a long dirt road, past the Parson's place |
| [00:58.00] |
That old blue car we used to race |
| [01:05.00] |
Little country store with a sign tacked to the side |
| [01:10.00] |
Said 'No L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G Allowed' |
| [01:19.00] |
Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd |
| [01:25.00] |
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around |
| [01:32.00] |
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around |
| [01:39.00] |
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around |
| [01:50.00] |
One night thunder cracked, mercy backed outside her windowsill |
| [01:57.00] |
Dreamed I was flying high above the trees, over the hills |
| [02:03.00] |
Looked down into the house of Mary |
| [02:11.00] |
Terrible thoughts, newspaper-covered walls, and Mary rising up above it all |
| [03:03.00] |
Next morning on the way into town |
| [03:06.00] |
Saw some skid marks and followed them around |
| [03:10.00] |
Over the curve, through the fields, into the house of Mary |
| [03:19.00] |
That what you fear the most, could meet you halfway |
| [03:26.00] |
That what you fear the most, could meet you halfway |
| [03:34.00] |
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around |
| [03:41.00] |
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around |
| [03:47.00] |
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around |
