Aretha Franklin
Mary Goes Around
[Verse 1]
Here comes Mary, girls well now you better just hide your love
She don't wanna aim arrows at unattached men
It don't matter too much that it hurts, so you better know what's what
Here comes Mary, girls just turn your backs and then
She is heeled in flash to hurt, it's all a game
She's win and then she'll walk away
[Chorus]
(And the boys say)
Mary goes round (then the girls say)
Mary goes round (round round)
Mary goes round (then the girls say)
Mary goes round (round round)
(Turn a corner right, turn a corner left, step by step)
[Verse 2]
Mary had a little lamb, his fleece was white as snow
Mother's helper, daddy's little angel
And everywhere she went, uh huh, the men was sure to go
There is just another walk for danger
Don't let her get too close, or you'll add one more part
To Mary's trail of broken hearts
[Chorus]
Mary goes round (then the girls say)
Mary goes round (round round) (then the boys say)
Mary goes round, oh (then the girls say)
Mary goes round (round round)
Don't let her get too close, or you've add one more part
To Mary's trail of broken hearts, ooh, oh oh
[Chorus]
Mary goes round (na na na na na)
Mary goes round (round round)
Mary goes round, help me sing it (na na na na na)
Mary goes round (round round)
Mary goes round (na na na na na)
[Outro]
Oh, you've got to slow your own up to the dawn (round round)
Party time, ooh, your party it's sho', talking, talking
Party time, you've got to slow your own up to the dawn
Mary goes round, oh (na na na na na)
Mary goes round
