Sweet Mary

Where are you now
That my sweet Mary done died
Alone, alone, aloneSomewhere you say
Where my sweet Mary held her grave
In her arms like an infant odysseyYou can hush my little darlin
Dont you cry
Hush beneath the dreams
We did roam'Cause I do believe
It will be just like the color
When the purple sings
When I will know for sureShe was held to the blade
Laid down my sweet Mary dear
She laid down upon the cold winters floorAnd I remember what she said
When she saw the snow turn to red
She said, Lord, let me be the Lord
Let me be the LordYou can hush my little darlin
Dont you cry
Hush beneath the dreams
We did roam'Cause I do believe
It will be just like the color
When the purple sings
When yes, this angel will cover us
