[verse]
She lived on the curve of the road
In an old tar-paper shack
On the south side of the town
On the wrong side of the tracks
Sometimes on the way into town we'd say
"Mama, can we stop and give her a ride?"
Sometimes we did, but her hands flew from her side
Wild-eyed, crazy Mary
[pre-chorus]
Down a long dirt road, past the Parson's place
That old blue car we used to race
Little country store with a sign tacked to the side
Said 'No L-O-I-T-E-R-I-N-G Allowed'
Underneath that sign always congregated quite a crowd
[chorus]
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it, pass it a-
Pass it around
[verse]
One night thunder cracked, mercy backed outside her window sill
Dreamed I was flying high above the trees, over the hills
Looked down into the house of Mary
Bare bulb hung, newspaper-covered walls
And Mary rising up above it all
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
[pre-chorus]
Next morning on the way into town
Saw some skid marks and followed them around
Over the curve, through the fields
Into the house of Mary
[chorus]
That what you fear the most could meet you halfway
That what you fear the most could meet you halfway
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it, pass it around
[bridge]
Shadows linger in the dusty light
Echoes of her wild, unyielding fight
What haunts the heart in the dead of night
Rises like smoke, fading from sight
[break]
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
Pass it around, around, around
[chorus]
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it, pass it a-
Pass it around (oh yeah)
Pass it around, around, aroundCrazy Mary, lost in the bend
What you fear the most, it finds you in the end
Pass it around, let the bottle spin
Till the road curves back again
