Lonesome Mary

I went down to see lonesome Mary

She was sitting all alone

She was crying for the contrariness

That made a desert of her home

She was weeping and a-wailing

You know she does it every day

I said Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary

How can you live that way

She said I don't know

Must be in my soul

I guess I must be the most contrary

Hard to get along with

Person in this world

Ooh, Lonesome Mary

Ooh, Lonesome Mary

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I went down to see lonesome Mary

She was sitting all alone

She was crying for the contrariness

That made a desert of her home

She was weeping and a-wailing

You know she does it every day

I said Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary

How can you live that way

She said I don't know

Well, it must be in my soul

I guess I must be the most contrary

Hard to get along with

Person in this world

Ooh, Lonesome Mary

Ooh, Lonesome Mary

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
