**** Great version of this is found on the "Live At The Garden" DVD.<br><br>She lived on the curve in the road<br> In an old tar paper shack.<br> On the south side of the town<br> On the wrong side of the tracks.<br> Sometimes on the way into town<br> We'd say, "Mama can we stop and give her a ride?"<br> Sometimes we did<br> But her hands flew from her side.<br> Wild eyed<br> Crazy Mary.<br> <br>Down a long dirt road<br> Past the Parson's place.<br> That old blue car<br> We used to race.<br> Little country store with a sign tacked to the side.<br> Said 'NO L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G ALLOWED.'<br> Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd.<br> <br>Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around.<br> Take a bottle drink it down. Drink it... Pass it around. Pass ita...<br> A-take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass itaround.<br> <br>One night thunder cracked.<br> Mercy backed outside my windowsill.<br> Dreamed I was flying high<br> Above the trees over the hills.<br> Looked down into the house of Mary.<br> A bare bulb on.<br> Newspaper covered walls.<br> And Mary rising up above it all.<br> Oh... Oh... Oh...<br> <br>Next morning on the way into town<br> Saw some skid marks and followed them around.<br> Over the curve,<br> Through the fields,<br> Into the house of Mary.<br> <br>That what you fear the most could meet you halfway. (x2)<br> <br>Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around.<br> Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it around. Pass ita...<br> Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass itaround.<br> Oh, pass it a... Pass it arround. Pass it a... Pass it a... Passit a...<br> Oh yeah. Last edited: 25.04.2012 10:31 |
