Mary Jo lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Mary Jo lyrics Mary Jo, sitting alone Drinking tea, she just got home She wants, I don t know what you want Mary Jo, living alone Drinking gin with the telly on She wants The night to follow day and back again She doesn t want to sleep Well who could blame her if she wants? The night to follow day and back again She doesn t want to sleep Well who could blame her, if she sleeps? Well who could blame her, if she sleeps? Well who could blame her, if she s sleeping? Mary Jo, back with yourself For company, keep telling yourself you re young It ll happen soon Mary Jo, no one can see What you ve been through Now you ve got love to burn It s someone else s turn to go through Hell Now you can see them come from twenty yards Yeah you can tell It s someone else s turn to take a fall And now you are the one who s strong enough to help them The one who s strong enough to help them The one who s strong enough to help them all Mary Jo, you re looking thin You re reading a book, "The State I Am In" But oh, it doesn t help at all What you want is a cigarette And a thespian with a caravanette in Hull Because life is never dull in your dreams A pity that it never seems to work the way you see it Life is never dull in your dreams A sorry tale of action and the men you left for Women, and the men you left for Intrigue, and the men you left for dead song lyrics
