Bruce Springsteen - Mary Queen Of Arkansas Lyrics
Mary queen of arkansas, its not too early for dreaminThe sky is grown with cloud seed sown and a bastards love can be redeemingMary, my queen, your soft hulk is revivingNo, youre not too late to desecrate, the servants are just risingWell Im just a lonely acrobat, the live wire is my tradeIve been a shine boy for your acid brat and a wharf rat of your stateMary, my queen, your blows for freedom are missingYoure not man enough for me to hate or woman enough for kissingThe big top is for dreamers, we can take the circus all the way to theBorderAnd the gallows wait for martyrs whose papers are in orderBut I was not born to live to die and you were not born for queeninIts not too late to infiltrate, the servants are just leavinMary queen of arkansas, your white skin is deceivinYou wake and wait to lie in bait and you almost got me believinBut on your bed mary I can see the shadow of a nooseI dont understand how you can hold ma so tight and love me so damn looseBut I know a place where we can go, maryWhere I can get a good job and start all over again cleanI got contacts deep in mexico where the servants have been seen
