mary jo by rebecca lappa

verse 1
always was a stubborn man hard working and true
guess that’s the reason i fell i love with you
heard there was a struggle way out in the east
wanted to lend a helping hand, just wanted peace

pre chorus 1
held you in my arms that very last time
i thought i’d be back in no time
cause honestly how hard could it be
to get some people to agree

chorus
mary jo, mary jo you’re my heart and soul
please remember me
my battle cry has long died across the caspian sea
now i lay me down and let the sands cover me deep
mary jo, mary jo i’m not coming home
so please remember me

verse 2
when we first arrived i thought we’d sit us down
like civilized people and just figure it out
but the general had a different plan to which i did not agree
had to use brute force instead of humanity

pre chorus 2
there’s no rest for the wicked which i quickly learned
watched my fellows die soon it would be my turn
lock and load and fire take a breath and count to ten
and then do it again

verse 3
out in the sand and heat for many years and the dust was in my eyes
hadn’t seen you for so long i began to cry
drowning in my sorrow i fell to my knees
and i didn’t see the gunman bearing down on me

pre chorus 3
as the bullet flew through me that was when i knew
my soul went to heaven, my thoughts they flew to you
now as i lie here cold and alone
i know they’ll finally send me home
