Far Too Jones - Ballad Of Mary lyrics

Hey Mary are you still waiting?

Has your "thunder road" come along and gone and left you praying?

Your so called friends and the stories they tell

Don't really seem to fit you all that well

And anyway, all I need to believe in now is you

Hey Mary, can you feel it?

All the easy eyes upon you as you walk by

We're all just sinners living for the fall

I once read Him on the subway wall

It said some day that little boy of yours

Is going to save the world

And I believe it's true

We can waste a lifetime waiting

for a time to live or a time to die

Either way I know we've got to start tonight

This old town's got nothing left

for a couple of high school prom rejects

This old car has got a new headlight

and you can sleep while I drive

So slip a little closer next to me

and tell me everything that angel said

All the world swears you're a liar...

but you can sleep while I drive
