Mamas put your babies to sleep
Story too cruelsome for them this is
In Junior High she said goodbye to her parents
And she ran away with a boy
She left her family warm and kind
All of her friends said, "You're out of your mind"
Life of her own she would find
It's Monday and she's gotta grind
Job as a waitress she sure was to find
Beautiful face, mind of a child
Boy got her pregnant, Mary-Lou cried:
"For this I am too young oh why did you lie?
You said it's okay if we do it today
I was so scared that you would go away
Despite all the papers being signed
Mama take me back, be so kind"
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again
He promised the moon but won't marry you
Nothing to do, eating for two
He's going out with someone new
Sunshine or rain, it's all the same
Life isn't gray, oh Mary-Lou
ย
Mamas do your children still sleep
In the safe of their cradles so sweet?
Story I told you, I have foreseen
Your little angel ain't always so clean
Days to come aren't easy to see
You can change 'em but it isn't free
I see that you don't believe, oh but you will see
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again
He promised the moon but won't marry you
Nothing to do, eating for two
He's going out with someone new
Sunshine or rain, it's all the same
Life isn't gray, oh Mary-Lou

Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again
He promised the moon but won't marry you
Nothing to do, eating for two
He's going out with someone new
Sunshine or rain, it's all the same
Life isn't gray, oh Mary-Lou
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again
He promised the moon but won't marry you (won't marry you)
Nothing to do, eating for two
He's going out with someone new
Sunshine or rain, it's all the same
Life isn't gray, oh Mary-Lou
