Crazy Mary

[00:00.86] She lived on the curve in the road in an old tar paper shack.

[00:08.37] On the south side of the town on the wrong side of the tracks.

[00:15.12] Sometimes on the way into town we'd say, "Mama can we stop and give her a ride?"

[00:21.88] Sometimes we did but her hands flew from her side.

[00:28.64] Wild eyed crazy Mary.

[00:50.67] Down a long dirt road past the Parson's place.

[00:57.93] That old blue car we used to race.

[01:04.68] Little country store with a sign tacked to the side.

[01:09.94] Said 'NO L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G ALLOWED.'

[01:18.69] Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd.

[01:24.95] Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around.

[01:31.96] Take a bottle drink it down. Drink it... Pass it around. Pass it a...

[01:38.72] A-take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around.

[01:49.49] One night thunder cracked. Mercy backed outside her windowsill.

[01:56.50] Dreamed I was flying high above the trees over the hills.

[02:03.00] Looked down into the house of Mary.

[02:10.26] Bare bulb on Newspaper covered walls. And Mary rising up above it all.

[02:23.17] Oh... Oh... Oh...

[03:02.22] Next morning on the way into town saw some skid marks and followed them around.

[03:09.48] Over the curve, through the fields, into the house of Mary.

[03:18.24] That what you fear the most could meet you halfway. [x2]

[03:33.01] Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it around.

[03:39.77] Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it around. Pass it a...

[03:46.52] Take a bottle drink it down. Pass it... Pass it a... Pass it around.

[04:33.84] Oh, pass it a... Pass it around. Pass it a... Pass it a... Pass it a...

[04:54.61] Oh yeah.
