 she lived on a curve in the road  in an old tar paper shack
 on the south side of town on the  wrong side of the tracks
 sometimes on the way  into town we say
  mama  can we stop and give her a ride
 sometimes we did  but her hands  flew from her side
 wild eyed...crazy...Mary
 down a long dirt road  past the Parson's place
 their old blue car  we used to race
 a little country  store, with a sign  tacked to the side
 
  said no L-O-I-T--R-I-N-  allowed
 underneath that sign always congregated  quite a crowd
 take a bottle, drink it down, pass  it around
  take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around, pass it a
 take a bottle, drink it down,  pass it a, pass  it a, pass  it around
 one night the thunder cracked, mercy backed outside her windowsill
 dreamed I was flying high, above the trees, over the hills
 looked down into the house of Mary
 somethings gone???, newspaper  covered walls
 and Mary rising up, above it all
  ah...... ah......
 next morning on the way into town
 we saw some skid marks and followed them around
 over the curb, through the fields,  into the house of Mary
 that what you fear  the most will meet you  half way
 that what you fear  the most will meet you  half way
 take a bottle, drink it down, pass  it around
  take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around, pass it a
 take a bottle, drink it down,  pass it a, pass  it a, pass  it around
 Eddie
