Mary May by Twin Bandit Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He saw her there
With the sunlight in her hair
And he drew her in like a moth to the flame
How could she know
All the danger she was in
When she gave her heart to that railroad man
[Chorus]
Oh Mary may
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man
[Verse 2]
In early spring
As the sun was rising high
Mary took to walking by the railroad side
She met a man who had traveled from afar
Well he took her hand and he stole her heart
[Chorus]
Oh Mary May
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man
[Bridge]
He took her young
That's how he like 'em
Who could blame him
She was his fool
[Verse 3]
When he spoke up, he spoke of love
Her sight was shaking
Her soul's taken at fourteen years
Her soul is taken
Bleeding hearts are crying
For they come and go with the sands of time
[Chorus]
Oh Mary May
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man
[Verse 4]
She would have fought for him
Fought for them
For the love she knew
At the young age of fourteen years
She would have fought for him
Pull the trigger slow
And blow her a kiss before you go
Oh Mary May
He saw her there
With the sunlight in her hair
And he drew her in like a moth to the flame
How could she know
All the danger she was in
When she gave her heart to that railroad man
[Chorus]
Oh Mary may
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man
[Verse 2]
In early spring
As the sun was rising high
Mary took to walking by the railroad side
She met a man who had traveled from afar
Well he took her hand and he stole her heart
[Chorus]
Oh Mary May
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man
[Bridge]
He took her young
That's how he like 'em
Who could blame him
She was his fool
[Verse 3]
When he spoke up, he spoke of love
Her sight was shaking
Her soul's taken at fourteen years
Her soul is taken
Bleeding hearts are crying
For they come and go with the sands of time
[Chorus]
Oh Mary May
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man
[Verse 4]
She would have fought for him
Fought for them
For the love she knew
At the young age of fourteen years
She would have fought for him
Pull the trigger slow
And blow her a kiss before you go
Oh Mary May
