Lately he hasn't been listening to me
Lately he hasn't been listening to me
I guess he's a man and he's meant to leave
Well I'm standing here right next to me
I got no girl to listen to me
What can I do?
What can I do?
And so I pray the child's prayer I was taught as a little kid
Before my head was stretched
Before my mother died
Before my brother died
Before the plague... ruined my life
I'm gonna change my prayer
I'm gonna change my prayer
I'm gonna change my prayer
So Mary...
So Mary...
So Mary...
So Mary, Mary, Mary would you merry me?
Mary, Mary, Mary would you merry me?
And me and you and Jesus could be a family
Mary, Mary, Mary if you'd merry me?
Me and Jesus could play and do child-like things
Oh Mary, Mary, Mary would you merry me?
