Lyrics Pete Townshend

Pete Townshend

Mary

Mary, you are everything a man could want

And I want you, Mary.

Did you know when you pushed me once away from you

The thing I knew grew inside me.

People are dancing for you now

But I can't see why

Can't they see that they can't beat

Nothing I have for you

Mary, you are everything a man could need

How I need you, Mary

Yeah

How I need you

When I look at the hole in your coat

I have to love you more

But when women let my brother down

I swore one day I'd land

Me one Mary

Swore I'l land me one Mary

Oh, Mary

When I look at the hole in your coat

I have to love you more

I remember when I was a child

My brother slept on the floor

Oh, I know that the sun don't shine

Down on every man

But when the woman let my brother dow

I swore one day I'd land me Mary

I swore I'd land me Mary
