Bruce Springsteen - Mary Lou lyrics
[Bruce Springsteen - Mary Lou lyrics]
You're scrapbook's filled with pictures of
All your leading men well baby
Don't put my picture in there with them
Don't make us some little girl's dream
That can never come true
Oh baby, don't do it to me
I won't do it to you
Mary Lou, I'm not like all those other guys
Mary Lou, i won't fill your pretty head
With their pretty lies
Mary Lou, and dreams that never, never
Never ever will come true mary Lou
That'd only serve to hurt and make
You cry like you do
You've seen all the romantic movies
You dream and take the boys home
But when the action fades
You're left all alone
You deserve more than this
A real love that can grow
And I ain't playin' outtakes, girl
From some late late show, no
Mary Lou
You're not like all those others girls
Mary Lou
So afraid to shake up that real world
Every night, you go out looking for
True love and satisfaction
But you always end up setting
Up for just lights, camera, action
And another cameo role with some
Bit player you're befriending
You're gonna go broken hearted looking
For that happy ending
Mary Lou, I've seen all those movies too
Mary Lou
And I know the hurt too much dreaming can do
Mary Lou, you're gonna end up just
Another lonely ticket sold
Mary Lou crying alone in the
Theatre as the credit's roll
All your leading men well baby
Don't put my picture in there with them
Don't make us some little girl's dream
That can never come true
Oh baby, don't do it to me
I won't do it to you
Mary Lou, I'm not like all those other guys
Mary Lou, i won't fill your pretty head
With their pretty lies
Mary Lou, and dreams that never, never
Never ever will come true mary Lou
That'd only serve to hurt and make
You cry like you do
You've seen all the romantic movies
You dream and take the boys home
But when the action fades
You're left all alone
You deserve more than this
A real love that can grow
And I ain't playin' outtakes, girl
From some late late show, no
Mary Lou
You're not like all those others girls
Mary Lou
So afraid to shake up that real world
Every night, you go out looking for
True love and satisfaction
But you always end up setting
Up for just lights, camera, action
And another cameo role with some
Bit player you're befriending
You're gonna go broken hearted looking
For that happy ending
Mary Lou, I've seen all those movies too
Mary Lou
And I know the hurt too much dreaming can do
Mary Lou, you're gonna end up just
Another lonely ticket sold
Mary Lou crying alone in the
Theatre as the credit's roll
