benjamin tod - mary could you lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
behind a fellow on the way to pocatello
on a westbound passenger train
buyin’ my time drinkin’ red wine
waitin’ for the signal to change
and there’s gold and hooch hidden in the caboose
and when the d+mn thing stops i’m ready to shoot

[chorus]
oh lord, i ain’t the innocent one
know me by the way i run
well, i’m stabbed in the back and i’m gunnin’ for that stack
oh mary, could you stitch me up

[verse 2]
mary made a living just fencing what was given
when the tramps rolled in on the train
sold her booze and offered a room
and a lady without a name
she could sew your wounds or sell you a tomb
but never could you tell her you had something to lose

[chorus]
oh lord, i ain’t the innocent one
know me by the way i run
well, i’m stabbed in the back and i’m gunnin’ for that stack
oh mary, could you stitch me up
[verse 3]
so i rode in hot just lookin’ for a cot
to lay my burdens down
in mary’s place i recognized a face
on a man from another town
he shot his lead at the side of my head
it was 27 stitches from the queen of the yeggs

[chorus]
oh lord, i ain’t the innocent one
know me by the way i run
well, i’m stabbed in the back and i’m gunnin’ for that stack
oh mary, could you stitch me up

[chorus]
oh lord, i ain’t the innocent one
know me by the way i run
well, i’m stabbed in the back and i’m gunnin’ for that stack
oh mary, could you stitch me up
