| 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 |
