Mary - Minnie Driver

Eyes as blue as the cheapest streets

You build your hotels on

You take the pennies I’m betting with

Because cash is cash

I steal your whiskey and cigarettes

From behind the old television set

It’s still got a dial

When I get sick you smile

Oh oh are you watching?

Sometimes it’s so hard to see

Oh oh are you watching?

Mary watch over me

When I was bloodied and broken

From a deadbeat kind of love

You laughed as you held my hand

And said «go on and cry

But let that be the very last thing

That you give him darling

Now let’s go on in the house

And make a voodoo doll.»

Oh oh are you watching?

Sometimes it’s so hard to see

Oh oh are you watching?

Mary watch over me

Got a faded photograph

A lion just like me

I folded it in half

I keep it with me

Oh you didn’t go quietly

Into the great white shining light

You were hopped up on love

And singing Johnny Cash

You looked up and you yelled at me

You said «Bad is cheap and good is free

So don’t pull any fast ones kid

'Cause I’ll be watching you.»

Oh oh are you watching?

Sometimes it’s so hard to see

Oh oh are you watching?

Mary watch over me
