Lyrics Pete Townshend – Mary
Text:
Mary, you are everything a man could want
And I want you, Mary
Did you know when you pushed me once away from you
The thing I knew grew inside me
People are dancing for you now
But I can’t see why
Can’t they see that they can’t beat
Nothing I have for you
Mary, you are everything a man could need
How I need you, Mary
Yeah
How I need you
When I look at the hole in your coat
I have to love you more
I remember when I was a child
And my brother slept on the floor
Oh, I know that the sun don’t shine
Down on every man
But when women let the my brother down
I swore one day I’d land
Me one Mary
Swore I’d land me one Mary
Oh, Mary
When I look at the hole in your coat
I have to love your more
I remember when I was a child
My brother slept on the floor
Oh, I know that the sun don’t shine
Down on every man
But when the woman let my brother down
I swore I’d land me Mary
