lyrics

Get hot
Feel cold
Rain right up in your face
But Mary’s alright, she’s thinking ‘bout life, ‘bout how things used to be
Good God
Holy Hell
Devil’s foolin’ round with a Saint
But Mary’s alright, her legs touch the sky every time she sings the refrain

And the laughs are loud and every single sound is screaming out for you to stay
But don’t worry ‘bout it all wherever you fall I’ll be sure to come your way
Cause you look real nice, you got the hair all right

Sit down, take a seat
You never know what you might see
Just another fork in the road
Another real good load
She might be here tonight

She’s awake
No mistake
He’s about to leave
But Mary’s alright, she’s dancin’ tonight, dancin’ like she really believes

Take drugs
Get help
Lose your sense of self
But Mary’s alright, she’ll put up a fight, she knows it’s all just a game

And the laughs are loud and every little sound is screaming out for you to stay
But don’t worry ‘bout it all, wherever you fall I’ll be sure to come your way
Cause you look real nice, you got the hair all right

Sit down, take a seat
You never know what you might see
Just another fork in the road
Another real good load
She might be here tonight

Clap hands
Eat the cake
Who got the lucky break?
But Mary’s alright, cause she’s got time even when she’s running late
