Ballad Of Mary Lyrics - Singles - Far Too Jones

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
