Crying Mary

歌曲歌詞

I knew Mary when she was a baby

One little girl and one big little man

Five years younger she cried like the thunder

I watched her reach ten and never saw her again

From one boys home to one prison cell

Mary I've known this world's bitter hell

But come this winter I'll see my parole

And watch the heads turn down the aisle we stroll

Are you still Crying Mary the girl I knew before

Your mama used to come here she don't come no more

But she left a picture of you at seventeen

And every day since then Mary you have been my dream

For years I've waited alone in the dark

Thinking of you through a young boy's heart

Over and over the price that I've paid

Was watching you cry as they drove me away

Are you still Crying Mary the girl I knew before

So many times I've wondered behind these doors

Will we be together the way it used to be

Now that you are older Mary do you think of me

Are you still Crying Mary the girl I knew before

Your mama used to come here she don't come no more

Just this worn out picture that carries everything

But there's no way of knowing Mary do you think of me
