I saw Mary in her leather with a gun
Standing there
I saw Mary with her golden fingers
In his hair
Now she's standing under a street light
And she doesn't know what she's done
I saw Mary and she was his dream
For a day
I saw Mary and she never knew she could
Wrong this way
Now she's standing under a street light
Her waiting has only begun
What does she think when she's walking alone
The children have got to be fed
What will she do if it follows her home
Her other soul is dead
Does she remember when she's walking alone
With whirring birds overhead
Will she run, will she scream
What will she do with a gun
And the bullets in her head
Walk tall, walk strong
The truth will go on and on
Life's gone, love's gone
The watchman knows night long, night long
Walk tall, walk strong
The truth will go on and on, on and on
Life's gone, love's gone
Mary knows what is wrong
I saw Mary crumpled under
The pier
And I saw faces black and blue
For a year
Now she's standing under a street light
And she doesn't know what she's done
What does she think when she's walking alone
The children have got to be fed
What will she do if it follows her home
Her other soul is dead
Does she remember when she's walking alone
With whirring birds overhead
Will she run, will she bleed
What will she do with a gun
And the bullets in her head
