Mary Jane Lyrics

Oh, Mary Jane I'm scared it won't be too long

Till I've run on out of your sympathy

But still, you're good to me

Even though I can't afford a ring

And buy you better things

When the ceiling starts to fall

And everybody's there

The candles light the wall

The embers light the air

I know I was away the day they set our hope ablaze

I told that little lie again, again, again

Oh, Mary Jane at nights I want to hear the truth

That someday soon you'll be leaving me

But still, you're good to me

Even though I don't feel like the man I'm supposed to be

When the tower's looking tall

And everybody stares

The shadows start to crawl

As windows start to flare

I told you it was home where I was gone to all night long

I told that little lie again, again, again

I'm dreaming soon

Carolina skies will greet my blues

And my misery

But still, you're good to me

So tell me I'm a fool to think that

Someday soon you'll be leaving me

Someday soon you'll be leaving me

Someday soon you'll be leaving me
