Song Lyrics

Mary, Mary
© Sandy Rapp 1973
Honey, you was born in a small town far away,
Where you spent every day on the Primrose Lane.
Talkin' easy, walkin' like a saint you came
To the pourin' rain, and the subway train.

In the hometown you must have come round every day.
Now you've gone away down the Primrose Lane.
Liquor got you and there's somethin' workin' on your brain.
And it's not the same. Do you know your name? Singin':

chorus:
Mary, Mary,
Won't you come home girl you got a load to carry?
Mary, Mary,
Don't you know there's Heaven In The Greenwood Grown'?

Did you find you another did you find you a forever more'?
Was she more, was she more what you're lookin' for?
Oh was I just another pretty face on the barroom floor?
I'm outside your door, and I miss you more. Sister:

(repeat chorus)

Sandy Rapp
