Lyrics:

Goodbye, Mary
Sweet mother mine
Grayest sky
Gun metal eyes
Beneath the needle tree
The ghosts of you and me
They sing the saddest song
Just one last breath and gone
Some say this highway seven
Is a long and lonesome road
Don't ask me, little Rosa
What direction I am going
I used to love
And take the southern special
When the summer rise and fall
Now I ride the national

If I had a black cat bone
Then I would not be alone
Do it, darling, dig my grave
This cemetery is my own

Goodbye, Mary (goodbye, Mary)
Sweet mother mine (sweet mother mine)
Grayest sky
Gun metal eyes
Under the needle tree
The ghosts of you and me
They sing the saddest song
Just one last breath and gone

I used to love
And take the southern special
When the summer rise and fall
Now I take the national
Some say this highway seven
Is a long and lonesome road
Don't ask me, little Rosa
What direction, I don't know

If I had a black cat bone
Then I would not be alone

If I had a black cat bone
Then I would not be alone
Oh
