LYRICS:
__________________________________________________________________
Mamas put your babies to sleep,
Story too cruelsome for them this is.
In Junior high she said goodbye
To her parents and ran away with a boy.
She left her family warm and kind,
All of her friends said "you´re out of your mind".
Life of her own she would find,
It´s monday and she´s gotta grind.
A Job as a waitress she sure was to find,
Beautiful face, mind of a child.
Boy got her pregnant,
Mary-Lou cried," For this I am too young oh why did you lie"
You said "it´s okay if we do it today",
I was so scared that you would go away.
"Despite all the papers been signed,
Mama take me back be so kind".
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again.
He promised the moon but won´t marry you.
Nothing to do, eating for two, he´s goin´ out with someone new.
Sunshine or rain, it´s all the same, life isn´t gray oh Mary-Lou.
Mamas do your children still sleep,
In the safe of their cradles so sweet.
Story I told you I have forseen,
Your little angel ain´t always so clean.
Days to come aren´t easy to see,
You can change ´em but it isn´t free.
I see that you don´t believe,
Ooo-oo, but you will see.
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again.
He promised the moon but won´t marry you.
Nothing to do, eating for two, he´s goin´ out with someone new.
Sunshine or rain, it´s all the same, life isn´t gray oh Mary-Lou.
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again.
He promised the moon but won´t marry you.
Nothing to do, eating for two, he´s goin´ out with someone new.
Sunshine or rain, it´s all the same, life isn´t gray oh Mary-Lou.
Only a child, reckless and wild, needs to come home again.
He promised the moon but won´t marry you, oh Mary-lou
Nothing to do, eating for two, he´s goin´ out with someone new.
Sunshine or rain, it´s all the same, life isn´t gray oh Mary-Lou.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP, representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are "hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the official SONATA ARCTICA tablature which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route. These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the NY Times Article. We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
