Mary Don't You Weep

(专辑： Heart Over Mind - 1962)

Oh Mary, don't you weep for me
Oh Mary, just await for me
The war's gonna soon be over
Oh Mary, don't you weep

Jimmy sent a letter to his bride back home for three long years he's been gone
He left her crying on her wedding day
And went to fight the battle of the Blue and Gray

Oh Mary, don't you weep for me
Oh Mary, just await for me
The war's gonna soon be over
Oh Mary, don't you weep

Mary's young heart was filled with joy when she got the letter from her soldier boy
His words of love made her heart beat fast but little did she know it would be the last

Oh Mary, don't you weep for me
Oh Mary, just await for me
The war's gonna soon be over
Oh Mary, don't you weep

On that same day Atlanta burned down her soldier boy he fell to the ground
Now Mary sits alone by the candle light and reads his letter over every night

Oh Mary, don't you weep for me
Oh Mary, just await for me
The war's gonna soon be over
Oh Mary, don't you weep
