Lyrics:

Mary, you may have to run
You may have to be on your way
Consider the things that you've done
Mary, you may have to run

Remember your tales and your lies
They'll come back to haunt you one day
And all of the boys you made cry
Will remember your tales and your lies

Your false heart can never be true
I know it as well as the rest
You pay dear for the things that you do
Your false heart can never be true

One day the tables will turn
Sooner than later, my dear
And just like the bridges you've burned
One day the tables will turn

Just leave when the sun has gone down
Pack up your wiles and your spells
'Cause everything comes back around
Just leave when the sun has gone down

Mary, you may have to run
You may have to be on your way
Consider the things that you've done
Mary, you may have to run

With all of the things that you've done
Mary, you may have to run
