Brian Fallon The Blues Mary
Learned how to hammer in the burning august sun
Learned how to lie and cheat
How to steel and just how to run
Fell asleep most nights with somebody else's blood on
my tongue, your tongue
Learned just how to run
But its just the blues, Mary the blues
Swirling around my head like the dreams Dorothy this
shoes
Somewhere over the rainbow for you
Learned how to cry in them lonesome September nights
Learned to get by with the dogs and the dirt and the
charm of the street
Fell asleep most nights with your pictures right behind
my eyes
Your eyes
The killer and the victim arrive
Right at the same time
But its just the blues, Mary the blues
Swirling around my head like the dreams Dorothy this
shoes
I'm somewhere over the rainbow for you
But its just the blues, Mary the blues
Swirling around my head like the dreams Dorothy this
shoes
I'm somewhere over the rainbow for you
The cause for smile
Is bright like the ramparts on the 4th of July
My baby swings like a boxer
And sends her right hooks onto my chin
She cries like a baby
And she wears me just like a ring
She cries like a baby
And she wears me just like a ring
Learn how to swagger
Learn how to hold you while your body burns
Learn how compromise while this whirlwind hurricane
turns
We fell asleep most nights
With each others blood on our tongues, my love
Have you ever just had enough
But its just the blues, Mary the blues
Swirling around my head like the dreams Dorothy this
shoes
I'm somewhere over the rainbow for you
But its just the blues, Mary the blues
Swirling around my head like the dreams Dorothy this
shoes
I'm somewhere over the rainbow for you
But its just the blues, Mary the blues
Swirling around my head like the dreams Dorothy this
shoes
I'm somewhere over the rainbow for you
