[Intro]
Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary

[Chorus]
Deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary
Deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary
Deep inside I, deep inside I
Deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary
Mary, Mary, Mary

[Verse 1]
The problem is for many years
I've lived my life publicly
So it's hard for me to find a man I trust
I really trust
And every time I find someone I like, gotta worry about
If it's really me that they see
And I thought you were the one, oh

[Chorus]
Deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary
Deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary

[Verse 2]
I don't have a lot of friends
And sometimes I have to wonder
Is it cash they see when they look at me?
'Cause they're lookin' for a ride that's free
So I made the choice to be
Good to those who are good to me
Don't judge me or think I'm bitter
For the evil does allow me to see I'm just Mary

[Chorus]
Deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary
(Oh, I'm just Mary, can't you see that I'm just Mary)
Deep inside I wish that you could see
(I said I'm just Mary)
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary

[Bridge]
Deep inside I wish that
Wish that they could see I'm Mary, yeah (Mary)
Oh, oh, ooh
Deep inside I wish that
(Mary, Mary, Mary)
Every day of my life I wish
Oh, I wish that they could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary, yeah yeah
And I wish, I wish, I wish, hey hey, oh oh oh
It don't
See, ain't nothin' changed but the rain, and it goes along with it
I need, I need someone
Why can't you love the person inside, and stop lookin' outside
I said I'm just Mary, yeah yeah
All day, all night, I'm Mary, Mary, Mary, oh oh oh
Said I wish, and I wish, and I wish, and I wish
I wish that they could see that I'm Mary
MJB, yeah yeah yeah
If I could give somethin' else
But I can't give you nothin' but me all day and all night
I'm just Mary, Mary, Mary
It can't the clothes or the car I drive 'cause I...

[Chorus]
Deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary
Deep inside I wish that they could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary
Deep inside I, deep inside I, deep inside I
Deep inside I, deep inside I wish that you could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary...Mary

[Outro]
Mary, Mary, Mary, Mary
