Lyrics
Mary Jane
Oh Mary Jane
Tell me your game
What’s in a name
you’re still the same
I’ve nothin’ left to gain
My Mary Jane
Oh Mary Jane
leaving is the aim
escape without pain
slowly going sane
I’ve nothin’ left to say
My Mary Jane
Oh Mary Jane
I can hear the rain
on my window pane
running down my brain
time to break the chain
My Mary Jane
Oh Mary Jane
you can never be tamed
moving with the grain
unknown despite your fame
lost inside the frame
My Mary Jane
Oh Mary Jane
I’m so glad that you came
I was a little lame
in a lot of pain
now I’ve gone and changed
My Mary Jane
Oh Mary Jane
Farewell is the aim
leaving in the rain
solitude’s OK
thank you once again
My Mary Jane
