Boom Hank - Jimmy Loves Mary-Anne Lyrics

Just seventeen, everything that you've seen
Now it's there in her eyes
So many years of her poor mama's tears
And her Daddy's sweet lies
There's nobody home, and Mary-Anne's alone
Almost fully grown and words in her eyes

Jimmy's been down, he's been out and around
And he knows where it's at
Nothing no good if he thought that he could
But it isn't like that
He don't make mistakes, what he makes he takes
Jimmy gets all the breaks cause he knows how

But Jimmy loves Mary-Anne, Jimmy wants to be a man
And Jimmy loves Mary-Anne, she thinks it's alright

This big dollar town can drag you right down
If you go it alone
Even the strong don't survive very long
When they're out on their own

And Jimmy knows it's true, and Mary-Anne knows it too
They can see each other through if they hold on tight

Jimmy loves Mary-Anne, Jimmy wants to be a man
Jimmy loves Mary-Anne, she thinks it's alright

And Jimmy loves Mary-Anne, Jimmy wants to be a man
Jimmy loves Mary-Anne, she thinks it's alright, it's alright
