Mary/Martha
Mary Beth she's got this way about her
She can wave her hair and make em swoon
Oh my lord he just can't stay without her
She just smiles and adores him
I try too hard and bore him
Washing dishes in the kitchen like a desperate thing
Watching as he takes her under his wing
She is everything about me I don't like
She shows me everything about me I wanna make right
But I'm not that kind of girl anymore, I'm not that kind of girl
In his eyes all her sins are forgotten, in mine
I'm still shaking off the feeling off losing him
My head's too high, hers is just right
I don't know why she still cries while I'm
Washing dishes in the kitchen like a desperate thing
Watching as he watches her
She is everything about me I don't like
She shows me everything about me I wanna make right
But I'm not that kind of girl anymore, I'm not that kind of girl
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
That I'm not that kind of girl
She can wave her hair and make em swoon
Oh my lord he just can't stay without her
She just smiles and adores him
I try too hard and bore him
Washing dishes in the kitchen like a desperate thing
Watching as he takes her under his wing
She is everything about me I don't like
She shows me everything about me I wanna make right
But I'm not that kind of girl anymore, I'm not that kind of girl
In his eyes all her sins are forgotten, in mine
I'm still shaking off the feeling off losing him
My head's too high, hers is just right
I don't know why she still cries while I'm
Washing dishes in the kitchen like a desperate thing
Watching as he watches her
She is everything about me I don't like
She shows me everything about me I wanna make right
But I'm not that kind of girl anymore, I'm not that kind of girl
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
Standing in each other's way
How I wish that I could say
That I'm not that kind of girl
