Mary May

He saw her there, with the sunlight in her hair
And he.
Drew her in like a moth to the flame
How could she know all the danger she was in
When she.
Gave her heart to that railroad man

Oh Mary May,
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man

In early spring
As the sun was rising high
Mary took to walking by the railroad side
She met a man
Who had travelled from afar
Well he took her hand and he stole her heart

Oh Mary May
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man

He took her young
That's how he liked them
Who could blame him?
She was his fool

When he spoke of
He spoke of love
Her?
Her soul was taken
At fourteen years her soul was taken

Fleeting hearts are blind
For they come and go with the sands of time
Oh Mary May
She was a baby
When she met her stranger man

She would have fought for him, fought for him
For the love she knew
At the young age of fourteen years
She would have fought for him
Pull the trigger slow
And blow her a kiss before you go

Oh Mary May
