Pearl Jam - Crazy Mary Lyrics
she lived on a curve in the road, in an old tar-paper shackOn the south side of the town, on the wrong side of the tracksSometimes on the way into town we'd say:"mama, can we stop and give her a ride?"Sometimes we did but her hands flew from her sideWild eyed, crazy maryDown along the road, past the parson's placeThe old blue car we used to raceLittle country store with a sign tacked to the sideSaid "no l-o-i-t-e-r-i-n-g allowed"Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowdTake a bottle, drink it down, pass it aroundTake a bottle, drink it down, pass it aroundTake a bottle, drink it down, pass it aroundOne night thunder cracked mercy backed outside her windowsillDreamed i was flying high above the trees, over the hillsLooked down into the house of maryBare bulb on, newspaper-covered walls, and mary rising up above it allNext morning on the way into townSaw some skid marks, and followed them aroundOver the curve,through the fields, into the house of maryThat what you fear the most, could meet you halfwayThat what you fear the most, could meet you halfwayTake a bottle, drink it down, pass it aroundTake a bottle, drink it down, pass it aroundTake a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
