Mary run around, sailin' up and down,
Looking for a shot in some direction.
Got it from the top, it's nothing you can stop,
Lord, you know they made a fine connection.
They love each other, Lord you can see that it's true,
Lord you can see that it's true, Lord you can see that it's true.
He could pass his time, around some other line
But you know he chose this place beside her.
Don't get in their way, there's nothing you can say,
Nothing that you need to add or do.
They love each other, Lord you can see that it's true,
Lord you can see that it's true, Lord you can see that it's true.
Its' nothing, they explain, it's like a diesel train
You better not be there when it rolls, over,
And when that train rolls in, you wonder where it's been,
You gotta try and see a little further.
[ ADDITIONAL LYRICS FROM THE 1973 VERSION ]
Though you'll make a noise, just can't hear your voice.
All the dizzy ride on your cold shoulder.
Won't you believe what I say is true?
Everything I did I heard it first from you.
Everything I tell you, I heard it first from you.
Heard your news report, you know you're falling short.
Pretty soon, we'll trust you for the weather.
When that ship comes in, you won't know where it's been.
You got to try to see a little further.
Looking for a shot in some direction.
Got it from the top, it's nothing you can stop,
Lord, you know they made a fine connection.
They love each other, Lord you can see that it's true,
Lord you can see that it's true, Lord you can see that it's true.
He could pass his time, around some other line

Merry run around
Sailing up and down
Looking for a shove in some direction
Got it from the top
It's nothing you can stop
Lord, you know they made a fine connection
Chorus
They love each other
Lord, you can see it's true
Lord, you can see it's true
Lord, you can see it's true
He could pass his time
Around some other line
But you know he chose this place beside her
Don't get in the way
There's nothing you can say
Nothing that you need to add or do
[chorus]
It's nothing, they explain
It's like a diesel train
Better not be there when it rolls over
And when that train rolls in
You won't know where it's been
You gotta try to see a little further
[chorus]
Though you'll make a noise
They just can't hear your voice
They're on a dizzy ride and you're cold sober
[chorus]
Hope you will believe what I say is true
Everything I did, I heard it first from you
Heard your news report
You know you're falling short
Pretty soon won't trust you for the weather
When that ship comes in
You won't know where it's been
You got to try to see a little further
[chorus]
Peace everyone!!!
