Janis Joplin
Oh, Sweet Mary
Written by - Janis Joplin
From - Cheap Thrills
Yeah! 

Oh, sweet Mary, child of confusion, she runs the hills to cry 
Past the willows or an illusion, Lord, tell me the reason why
Tell me why, why is it all so hard?
Breathing in the air Breathe in the air 
Anyone to care
Oh!

(Alright, yeah!) 

Oh, sweet Mary, in our story, have we nothing left to give?
But don't we all know, babe, if we're pressed to, 
     that that's the way we live
Tell me why, why is it all so hard?
Breathing in the air 
Breathing in the air 
Anyone to care, oh, yeah! 

Hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now
Hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, hop now, whoa, yeah!
