Billy Walker - Sundown Mary lyric
Ringtone: Send Sundown Mary Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
(Chris Gantry - Larry Baunach)
I first met Sundown Mary a year ago today
Travelin' the same road I was a goin' the other way
We talked and then she said you might be nice to have around
If you don't mind a layin' your head wherever the sun goes down.
I've always been a loner never have no one before
But with every town we passed through I loved her a little more
And one night when I kissed her I thought she felt the same
But then the spell was broken by the whistle of a train.
What have you heard from Sundown Mary, what has she done today
Is she eatin' her food from the silver spoon and off of the golden plate
Is she in the chips in Texas or stranded broke in Maine
Do you know if Sundown Mary ever speaks my name
Ever speaks my name?
We hopped a train to Boton Rouge the trip took several days
I had no idea that she thought of going seperate ways
There in the crowded station she softly spoke my name
And said it's time to leave you cause I come and go like rain.
There's not much left of what you'd call the man I used to be
For in her place an empty space haunts my memory
Always broke and lonely I age a year a day
And when I get to drinkin' nights there's just one thing I say.
What have you heard from Sundown Mary, what has she done today
Is she eatin' her food from the silver spoon and off of the golden plate
Is she in the chips in Texas or stranded broke in Maine
Do you know if Sundown Mary ever speaks my name
Ever speaks my name?
We hopped a train to Boton Rouge the trip took several days
I had no idea that she thought of going seperate ways
There in the crowded station she softly spoke my name
And said it's time to leave you cause I come and go like rain...
