mary the lover

some of them trying to find Jesus,
some running from their pride,
some of them looking for a reason,
some just searching for a rhyme,

she just houses and feeds them,
and sends em on there way,
cause what it is their needin',
they'll have to find some other place,

she just tries to help out,
the only way that she knows how,
and every one that leaves her,
she leaves them with a smile,

they say Mary she's a sinner,
but many've called Mary a saint,
I guess it's in the eye of the beholder,
For what we are an ain't,

this road that we all travel,
It's filled with broken dreams,
and the ways we find to mend them,
to others it may seem,

But where it is we're going,
and how we will get there we don't know,
But many a prophet has preached,
You reap just what you sow,

see Mary she's a lover,
It's the only life she's ever known,
and she won't make you no false promises,
Just help to ease your load,

they say Mary she's a sinner,
but Many've called Mary a saint,
I guess it's in the eye of the beholder,
For what we are an ain't,

she just keeps on helping,
the only way that she knows how,
and every one that leaves her,
she leaves them with a smile,

some of them trying to find Jesus,
some running from their pride,
some of them looking for a reason,
some just searching for a rhyme,

she just houses and feeds them,
and sends em on there way,
cause what it is there needing,
they'll have to find some other place
