[Verse 1]
Mary’s got a new job
She’s working in the bank
Making lots of money and giving it to Frank
Frank’s her married boyfriend
Been that way for a year
Slapped her in the face once
But says he loves her dear
[Chorus]
Oh Mary, why don’t you have some sense
Please do something to restore my confidence
[Verse 2]
He’s met another woman
And traveling on his own
He wrote a loving message and left it by the phone
Mary still knows nothing
As innocent as snow
Everyone has heard the truth but no one lets it show
[Chorus]
Oh Mary, why don’t you have some sense
Please do something to restore my confidence
Let it go
[Bridge]
Mary’s got a new job
She’s working for herself
Making lots of money
And thinking of her health
She’s colder than November
As hard as she would will
There are times I lie there thinking
I miss the warm days still
[Chorus]
Oh Mary, why don’t you have some sense
Please do something to restore my confidence
Oh Mary, why don’t you have some sense
Please do something to restore my confidence
Let it go
