Mary (Album Version) 歌詞
Mary (瑪麗) - Soulive
Written by：Paul "Toussaint" Barrett/Alan Evans
Up above my head
I hear the wind whippin'
Here come them ghetto birds again
On every street lamp
Cameras see you from a distance
So the light hit the note to live
And now we survive
But it's still nickle and dime
Quite underneath those lights
Tight rope walking their life
You see the cameras don't work
When we in danger and hurt
Not a siren can be heard
Look for dead in the dirt
Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
Everywhere you looking
Another soul misguided
Thinking his pistol make him a man
Minimum wage ain't workin'
He want that fast money
Spend it as soon as it touch his hand
Why can't he see
You don't gotta try to be
Pushin' the LCD
Mother rear viewin' me
And I'll tell you what's worse
Why are there so many of us
Ghetto livin' like a curse
Can't even find truth in the church
Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
And now we survive
But it's still nickle and dime
Quite underneath those lights
Tight rope walking their life
You see the cameras don't work
When we in danger and hurt
Not a siren can be heard
Look for dead in the dirt
Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
Oh mother Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
Don't you be ashamed to cry
Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
