Black 47 - Our Lady Of The Bronx

Black 47

Our Lady Of The Bronx

Oh Mary Mary, I think I'm crackin' up
Everthing is fallin' apart
My arms are empty and you have just put
A fourty-five slug through my heart
I've been riding the D train alll day and all the night
And I just can't seem to come down
I wish I could reach you but you're so out of touch
And now you don't even want me around

Didn't I do everything you asked me to
Didn't I give you everything you wanted
So why are you always down there on your knees
Prayin' to Our Lady of the Bronx

Out on Decatur a crowd has gathered round
A Hasidic hangin' on a cross
On his knees down in the gutter
A Mayo man is blessin' himself
>From deep inside a tenement building
A Cuban woman raises her voice
She'd just heard the news on Channel 11
"Madonna appearin' in the Bronx"

Oh Mary Mary, I can't make it on my own
This town is tearin' me apart
We've got to get out, we've got to get back home
The walls are closin' in fast
I can hear their footsteps comin'
Now they've stopped outside our door
This could be our last chance
But you won't come with me, will you
No you'd sooner stay and pray for redemption
in the Bronx

Mirror lyrics:

in the Bronx
No you'd sooner stay and pray for redemption
But you won't come with me, will you
This could be our last chance
Now they've stopped outside our door
I can hear their footsteps comin'
The walls are closin' in fast
We've got to get out, we've got to get back home
This town is tearin' me apart
Oh Mary Mary, I can't make it on my own

"Madonna appearin' in the Bronx"
She'd just heard the news on Channel 11
A Cuban woman raises her voice
>From deep inside a tenement building
A Mayo man is blessin' himself
On his knees down in the gutter
A Hasidic hangin' on a cross
Out on Decatur a crowd has gathered round

Prayin' to Our Lady of the Bronx
So why are you always down there on your knees
Didn't I give you everything you wanted
Didn't I do everything you asked me to

And now you don't even want me around
I wish I could reach you but you're so out of touch
And I just can't seem to come down
I've been riding the D train alll day and all the night
A fourty-five slug through my heart
My arms are empty and you have just put
Everthing is fallin' apart
Oh Mary Mary, I think I'm crackin' up
