Mary

When those thoughts won't come

I know that the shakes will

I've got no gun to my weary head

Hell I couldn't even hold the barrel still

Everybody loves a catch twenty-two

Damned if you don't, son damned if you do

Outside it's another day that I got to make it through

I know that I said that it'd be all right

It's just going to take a little while

I'm tried to wait with the patience of Job

It's like busting down a prison using a broken file

To each his own, and so on

Think each of us might yeah we might own the wrong one

Yeah there might have been some constant cry

I was just trying to have some fun

Chorus:

Yeah Mary save me cause I'm sinking

Oh won't you please throw me a line

Mary save me cause I'm sinking

Mary I'm running out of time

They say hope springs eternal

I say eternity it springs up hope

It can overload my feeble mind

It's going to go looking for some ways to cope

I found the bottle or it found me

Tried to turn my future into history

Can anybody hear, can anybody see

Chorus
