"Mary's Song" lyrics

"Mary's Song"

She's got one hand wrapped in the rosary
And the other one carrying the groceries
That she barely can buy
She barely gets by
Mary gets high
Mary goes, goes
'Round and around in the black C-Class
With the man that she met at the underpass
'Cause her mama got sick, the bills came quick
But Mary don't, Mary don't, Mary don't quit
And no one sees the pain she keeps inside
Because

She still smiles when the times get hard
She still loves with a broken heart
Sings her song and it goes like
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
She still cries in the old car park
But she keeps playing with the cards she's got
Sings her song and it goes like
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
Do do-do do, do do-do do do

She's got scars and hurt from her history
Still tryna run away from the memories
But Mary can't hide, Mary can't cry
Mary's so tired, Mary's so
So lost in her mind, but has big dreams
Small house, fast car, down on fifth street
But things changed in her life back at fifteen
Two grown men now inside doing sixteen
Mary ain't, Mary ain't the same
Cold inside, but Mary ain't to blame
People judge, they don't even know her name
No, they don't even know her pain
Because

She still smiles when the times get hard
She still loves with a broken heart
Sings her song and it goes like
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
She still cries in the old car park
But she keeps playing with the cards she's got
Sings her song and it goes like
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
Do do-do do, do do-do do do

She still smiles when the times get hard
She still loves with a broken heart
Sings her song and it goes like
Do do-do do, do do-do do do
