Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand here in the rain
Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes

But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls


[Chorus:]
Oh, she takes just like a woman
Yes she does

And she makes love just like a woman
Yes she does
And she aches just like a woman

Yeah, but she breaks just like a little girl

Mary, she's my friend

Yes, I believe I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can't be blessed

'Til she finally sees that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines and her pearls


[Chorus]

It was rainin from the first

I was dyin of thirst
So I came in here
And your longtime curse

Hurts but what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here

Ain't it clear
I just can't fit


Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
When we meet again, introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when

I was hungry and it was your world

[Chorus]
