Miss Mary Mack

The lyrics to Ms Mary Mack, approximately:

Miss Mary Mack
Puerto Rican Black
Says that she'd do anything
To get out of Jackson
She said Jackson

She asked her mother
for twenty grand
cause she said her rent
had got outta hand
She said outta hand

she was so high
she touched the sky
she didn't come down until she almost died
she didn't come down until she almost died

and her mother said:
Mary I can't help more than I do
I don't have enough love left for you

Miss Mary Mack
about to crack
cause she said her man hauled off
he hauled of and smacked her
she said he smacked her

she asked her brother
for twenty grand
cause she said her debts
had got outta hand
she said outta hand

she was so high
she touched the sky
she didn't come down until she almost died
she didn't come down until she almost died

and her brother said:
Mary, I can't help more than I do
I don't have
enough money for you

but Mary said:
ticket to ride -- white line highway
tell all your friends that they can go my way
ticket to ride -- white line highway
tell all your friends that they can go my way

ticket to ride
they can go my way
tell all your friends...
tell all your friends...

(not sure about this part - sung in rounds)
Miss Mary Mack
Miss Mary Mack
Puerto Rican whore down south
Mississippi poor down south
Mississippi jack
Mississippi shack

she was so high
she touched the sky
she didn't come down until she almost died
she didn't come down until she almost died

Mary, I can't help more than I do
I don't have enough time left for you

but Mary said:
ticket to ride -- white line highway
tell all your friends that they can go my way
ticket to ride -- white line highway
tell all your friends that they can go my way
ticket to ride
they could go my way
tell all your friends
tell all your friends...

Miss Mary Mack Mack Mack
all dressed in black black black
with silver buttons buttons buttons
all down her back back back
she asked her mother mother mother
for fifty cents cents cents
to see the elephants elephants elephants elephants
jump over the fence fence fence

they jumped so high high high high
they touched the sky sky sky sky
they didn't come back back back
till fourth of July, lie lie
it was a lie lie lie
it was a lie!

(or, it was alive! I really don't know.)
