Lyrics

Yeah!

Oh, sweet mary, child of confusion, she runs the hills to cry
Past the willows or an illusion, lord, tell me the reason why
Tell me why, why is it all so hard ?
Breathing in the air breathe in the air
Anyone to care
Oh!

(Alright, yeah!)

Oh, sweet mary, in our story, have we nothing left to give ?
But don't we all know, babe, if we're pressed to, that that's the way we live
Tell me why, why is it all so hard ?
Breathing in the air breathing in the air
Anyone to care, oh, yeah!

Alright now!

Hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now
Hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, whoa, yeah!
