"Mary Jane's Last Dance" lyrics

She grew up in an Indiana town
Had a good-looking mama who never was around
But she grew up tall and she grew up right
With them Indiana boys on them Indiana nights

Well, she moved down here at the age of 18
Blew the boys away, was more than they'd seen
I was introduced and we both started grooving
I said, "I dig you, baby, but I got to keep moving
On
Keep moving on."

Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creeping in
And I'm tired of this town again

Well, I don't know, but I've been told
You never slow down, you never grow old
Tired of screwing up, tired of going down
Tired of myself, tired of this town

Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
Honey, put on that party dress
Buy me a drink, sing me a song
Take me as I come 'cause I can't stay long

Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creeping in
And I'm tired of this town again

Guitar

There's pigeons down in Market Square
She's standing in her underwear
Looking down from a hotel room
The nightfall will be coming soon

Oh, my my, oh, hell yes
You gotta put on that party dress
It was too cold to cry when I woke up alone
Hit the last number, walked to the road

Last dance with Mary Jane
One more time to kill the pain
I feel summer creeping in
And I'm tired of this town again
