- "The Wind Cries Mary" as recorded by
- Jimi Hendrix
-
- After all the jacks are in the boxes And the clowns have all gone to bed
- You can hear happiness staggering on down the street
- Footprints dressed in red And the wind whispers Mary
-
- A broom is drearily sweeping Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life
- Somewhere a queen is weeping Somewhere a king has no wife
- And the wind It cries Mary
-
- LEAD
-
- The traffic lights They turn blue tomorrow
- And shine their emptiness down on my bed
- The tiny island stays downstream Cause the life that lived is Is dead
- And the wind screams Mary
-
- Will the wind ever remember The names it has flown in the past
- And with this crutch It's old age And it's wisdom
- It whispers No This will be the last
- And the wind cries Mary
-
