Sacramentos half the city Since you took that job two states away I count the days as I wait these tables Trying to save the fare to come and stay And the smiles on the outside Couldn't be further from the truth if I tried It's a fight just to survive Working two jobs to keep the meter alive
Old Mr Lindon passed on his warmest regards From the window seat Since his good wife took leave of this life He ain't half the man he used to be And the smiles on the outside Couldn't be further from the truth if he tried And the stars up in the skies May as well burn out if you ain't by my side Oh Mary Ann, Mary Ann, wait for me One day I will be your King And you will be my Queen
Remember Joe, well they let him go Down at the sawmill on the edge of town They say that pride can cost a man his life Well Joes taken to drinking now And the smiles on the outside Couldn't be further from the truth if they tried It's a fight just to survive Working two jobs to keep the meter alive Oh Mary Ann, Mary Ann, wait for me One day I will be your King And you will be my Queen
The orange groves that line these roads Ain't gonna' offer me no sympathy The kids have grown and they miss you so While you've been out there making history And the smiles on the outside Couldn't be further from the truth if we tried It's a fight just to survive Working two jobs to keep the meter alive Oh Mary Ann, Mary Ann, wait for me One day I will be your King And you will be my Queen
