We met at redhead Mary's house[00:00:00]
On a Bible study night[00:00:03]
I heard she was a rebel[00:00:07]
Once until she saw the light[00:00:09]
Then in the backseat of a crowded car[00:00:14]
After weeks of holding hands[00:00:17]
She was slipping me the tongue[00:00:21]
Among her Christian friends[00:00:24]
We could chuckle and talk for hours[00:00:28]
And then one night over the phone[00:00:31]
She went and told me her best friend's secret[00:00:35]
After she had lowered her tone[00:00:38]
It was all about forgiving all about forgiving[00:00:41]
All about forgivingand so[00:00:44]
She thought that God would want me to know[00:00:48]
Her older sisters had both moved out[00:01:06]
And her parents were divorced[00:01:08]
Her mother lived in a trailer park[00:01:13]
Not big but she had a porch[00:01:15]
And on top of the piano[00:01:20]
Laid a cat with evil paws[00:01:22]
Her father he was a proud Nam vet[00:01:26]
I think she hardly saw[00:01:29]
We would chuckle and talk for hours[00:01:34]
And then one night over the phone[00:01:36]
She went and told me her best friend's secret[00:01:40]
After she had lowered her tone[00:01:43]
It was all about forgiving all about forgiving[00:01:46]
All about forgiving and so[00:01:50]
She thought that God would want me to know[00:01:53]
We would chuckle and talk for hours[00:02:26]
And then one night over the phone[00:02:28]
She went and told me her best friend's secret[00:02:32]
After she had lowered her tone[00:02:35]
It was all about forgiving all about forgiving[00:02:38]
All about forgiving and so[00:02:42]
All about forgiving all about forgiving[00:02:45]
All about forgiving and so[00:02:49]
All about forgiving all about forgiving all about forgiving and so[00:02:52]
She thought that God would want me to know[00:02:59]
The old piano she could play so nice[00:03:04]
She had later sadly sold[00:03:06]
The money was invested in[00:03:10]
The church her husband owned[00:03:13]
She had a kid when I looked her up[00:03:17]
And another on the way[00:03:20]
And when we waved our last goodbye[00:03:24]
She said that she would pray[00:03:26]
