Song Lyrics

'Jai Baba, folks

Mary Jane became a good friend to me
He showed me ways, a different way to be
But now's comes a time to move further down the line
So get your ten lil' fingers off of me

Mary Jane promised me so much
My soul has been used to your touch
But for every thing you gave, I then became your slave
Mary Jane, please take your hands off of me this minute

There are millions out there waiting for your charms
So proud Mary, go and take them in your arms
And threw her lovely eyes, you'll see a new sunrise
But will they see the things as they are?

They've taken me on one fantastic life
They've seen how I failed when I tried
I think that now and then I could take you again
But now I've got someone else inside

Mary Jane there are things that I've been told
By a man who is very, very old
He says it's up to me and if I can but see
His silver will give way to his gold
