Mary Madison Lyrics

She sat in the meadow with her jet black hair

Cos he said he would meet her there

She waited til the eve was in

She thought she might lead him in

She was chilled to the bone, but she didn't care

Cos she said she would meet him there

He didn't show up at the agreed time

So she looked for him walking through the vine

Cold and numb lying on the floor

His body lay lifeless alive no more

Crying in pain she didn't see

The man behind her who could it be

He struck her on the head

And before she hit the ground

She was dead

I want to believe

The story you see

It's just I don't hear the truth

She died on her own

No house nor no home

And she wasn't even a youth

Mary Madison

Detectives don't say much too him there

He confessed to the crime with a long hard stare

The country in shock over all of the news

A long lost father who used to abuse

The man who was caught was no special guy

Just the kind to make a mother cry

No jury was needed a guilty plea heard

The sentence given, at the stake he burned

The moral of this story is always beware

Even if he said he would meet you there

Even if he said he would meet you there

I want to believe

The story you see

It's just I don't hear the truth

She died on her own

No house nor no home

And she wasn't even a youth

Mary Madison
