The problem is, for many years
 I've lived my life, publicly
 So it's hard for me to find a man I trust
 I rarely trust

 And every time I find someone I like
 Gotta worry about if it's really me
 That they see
 And I thought you were the one, oh

 1 - Deep inside I wish that you could see
 That I'm just plain old Mary
 Mary

 Deep inside I wish that you could see
 That I'm just plain old Mary
 Mary

 I don't have a lot of friends
 And sometimes I have to wonder
 Is it cash they see when they look at me
 Cause they're looking for a ride that's free
 So I made the choice to be
 Good to those who were good to me
 Don't judge me or think I'm bitter
 For the evil God's allowed me to see
 I'm just Mary


 I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary
 I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary
 I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary
 I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary

 Repeat 1
 Repeat 1

 It's the car I drive
 The clothes I wear
 The diamonds, the furs, and the house
 Don't make the woman
 So I need someone
 To stand by me
 And supply my needs
 And I'm just plain old Mary

 Repeat 1 till end
