Mary Go Round

Mary and I were the perfect picture of love

But my world started spinning around till it wasn't enough

I tried to hang on to the Heaven she made just for me

But when I slipped and fell, it drove her to hell

And Lord knows that I hate to sin

Mary go round

Mary go round

Mary, I wish you would stop taking your heartache to town

Why can't you see?

That free love ain't free

You'll spend till you fall to the ground

Mary, I wish that you'd never found

The Mary go round

No, she's not the first to discover the devils playground

But this ain't no game and these demons ain't playin' around

They'll make her believe they can drown all her pain with a drink

And if she sinks below, it's burning my soul

To watch 'em all laugh as they sing

Mary go round

Mary go round

Aw Mary, I wish you'd stop taking your heartache to town

Why can't you see?

Honey, free love ain't free

You'll spend till you fall to the ground

Mary, I wish that you'd never found

The Mary go round

You'll spend till you fall to the ground

Mary, I curse the day that you found

The Mary go round
