The Dead South - Miss Mary

Lyrics:

Lady killed a man today
Somewhere out of the way
Didn't know what to do or what to say
And she ran
Oh as fast as she can

To the nearest garbage
Where she threw his body in with a plastic bag
To cover up the rancid smell and decay of her man
Oh, what a tragic plan

Miss Mary and her man

Never killed no one before, never seen such blood
When she heard a man a'thump she grabbed that six-shooter gun
There was nothin' he could do, nothin' he could say
He was naked with another woman, screwin' around that day

One! (Hey!) Two! (Hey!) Three! (Hey!) Four! (Hey!)
Was this for real?
Five! (Hey!) Six! (Hey!) Seven! (Hey!) Eight! (Hey!)
She woke up on the floor of the jail
Was just an illusion, a toxic thrill

Kill a man, and
Thing about Miss Mary was she took too many pills
Voices in her head are calling out

Miss Mary and her man

She woke up from a dream
Seein' blood about
Her husband was innocent
She killed him anyhow

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

Oh, Miss Mary, shootin' about
Killed a man with illusion and doubt
Oh

Been waiting SO LONG!! !I hope you guys make a trip to Georgia on your next US tour !!!

[IceDragon]

I love the feeling this song gives I am learning it personally on the banjo

[joehendry]

came across these a few weeks ago and I am hooked

[swampfox]

gotta let Danny Kenyon sing more "in hell ill be in good company" his voice was just a shock and awe. Fantastic.

[MrJLH]

Such great music! So much better than the pop and hip hop crap on AAAALLL fucking radio stations!

[ScisaacFisaac]

I like the almost Poe-esque feel to it. Anyone else get that feeling?

[gervinthomas]

Dudes, you’re exactly all I love in bluegrass !
Hi from Normandy, France

[DJFox]

I wish you guys would come to Ohio, I'd definitely go to that.

[MrHillbippie]

you guys are fucking awesome, , keep cranking out the killer tunes.

[sagemcchesney]

You guys should play at some music festivals. You would be a great hit.

[karengaskins]

Great harmonizing I would love to see you guys live in my house today or anywhere

[jackdaniels]

Holy hell I can't find the lyrics anywhere and I swear the god I searched a lot around the web. English isn't my mother tongue and I can't understand every single word they are singin. Can please someone help me? At least telling me what's the song actually about? I would be really grateful 👏

[conradmiller]

Come to the cains ballroom in tulsa Oklahoma please

[Bennybenyt]

Who can help me, at bottom of this album, the message, what does it say

[temujinnorris]

first time i heard a "six-shooter" shoot eight bullets

[vaden]

I love how this song seems to be an analogy of how mary stole the un named banjo players spot in the band

[fellipecarvalho]

Damm, does anybody know the chords of this song?

[codyskyler]

What happened to that animated video for this?!?!
