Mary-Lou lyrics

Mamas, put your babies to sleep

Story too cruelsome for them this is

In Junior high she said goodbye

To her parents and ran away with a boy

She left her family warm and kind

All of her friends said, "You're out of your mind"

Life of her own she would find

It's Monday and she's gotta grind

A job as a waitress she sure was to find

Beautiful face, mind of a child

Boy got her pregnant, Mary-Lou cried

"For this I am too young, oh, why did you lie"

You said, "It's okay if we do it today

I was so scared that you would go away

Despite all the papers been signed

Mama take me back be so kind"

Only a child, reckless and wild

Needs to come home again

He promised the moon

But won't marry you

Nothing to do, eating for two

He's goin' out with someone new

Sunshine or rain, it's all the same

Life isn't gray, oh, Mary-Lou

Mamas do your children still sleep

In the safe of their cradles so sweet

Story I told you I have foreseen

Your little angel ain't always so clean

Days to come aren't easy to see

You can change 'em but it isn't free

I see that you don't believe

Ooh, but you will see

Only a child, reckless and wild

Needs to come home again

He promised the moon

But won't marry you

Nothing to do, eating for two

He's goin' out with someone new

Sunshine or rain, it's all the same

Life isn't gray, oh, Mary-Lou

Only a child, reckless and wild

Needs to come home again

He promised the moon

But won't marry you

Nothing to do, eating for two

He's goin' out with someone new

Sunshine or rain, it's all the same

Life isn't gray, oh, Mary-Lou

Only a child, reckless and wild

Needs to come home again.

He promised the moon

But won't marry you

Nothing to do, eating for two

He's goin' out with someone new

Sunshine or rain, it's all the same

Life isn't gray, oh, Mary-Lou
