| Well you said your faith in life wasn’t giving you everything
|
| So why do you want to play with guns
|
| Why do you want to do all those kind of foolish things
|
| Well I know you always said
|
| You never knew your daddy’s name
|
| And I guess you tld me so a million times
|
| I heard you say I never was the one to blame
|
| How well I remember it was back in '69
|
| You was always running around with nothing to lose
|
| Eating too many blues trying to stay alive
|
| When everything we thought was true
|
| Was true enough for me and you
|
| Oh Mario, when no-one else would see you through
|
| Oh Mario
|
| Your faith in life is everything
|
| Put away your guns with your childish dreams
|
| Oh Mario
|
| With your painted wife and your priest that sings
|
| Waiting for your songs
|
| Give them silver rings and precious stones
|
| Everything you thought was true
|
| Was only down to me and you
|
| No-one else would see you through
|
| Mario, what else could I do?
|
| Oh Mario |
