Mary Go Round by Jamey Johnson Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 2008

[Verse 1]
Mary and I were the perfect picture of love
But my world started spinnin' around, 'til it wasn't enough
I tried to hang on to the heaven she made just for me
But when I slipped and fell it drove her to hell, and Lord knows that I hate to see

[Chorus]
Mary go round, Mary go round
Mary I wish you'd stop takin' your heartache to town
Why can't you see that free love ain't free?
You'll spin 'til you fall to the ground, Mary I wish that you'd never found, the Mary go round

[Verse 2]
Now she's not the first to discover the devil's playground
But this ain't no game and these demons ain't playin' around
They'll make her believe they can drown all her pain with a drink
And if she sinks below it's burnin' my soul, to watch 'em all laugh as they sing

[Chorus]
Mary go round, Mary go round
Aw, Mary, I wish you'd stop takin' your heartache to town
Why can't you see, honey, free love ain't free?
You'll spin 'til you fall to the ground, Mary I wish that you'd never found, the Mary go round
[Outro]
You'll spin 'til you fall to the ground
Mary I curse the day that you found, the Mary go round
