Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds — The Kindness of Strangers

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds The Kindness of Strangers

Текст песни

They found Mary Bellows cuffed to the bed

With a rag in her mouth and a bullet in her head

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

She'd grown up hungry, she'd grown up poor,

She left her home in Arkansas

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

She wanted to see the deep blue sea

She travelled across Tennessee

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

She met a man along the way

He introduced himself as Richard Slade

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

Poor Mary thought that she might die

When she saw the ocean for the first time

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

She checked into a cheap little place

Richard Slade carried in her old suitcase

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

“I'm a good girl, sir,” she said to him

“I couldn't possibly permit you in”

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

Slade tipped his head and winked his eye

And turned away without goodbye

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

She sat on her bed and thought of home

With the sea breeze whistling; all alone

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

In hope and loneliness she crossed the floor

And undid the latch on her front door

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

They found her the next day cuffed to the bed

A rag in her mouth, and a bullet in her head

O, poor Mary Bellows

 

So, mothers, keep your girls at home

Don't let them go on a journey out alone

Tell them this world is full of danger

And to shun the company of strangers

O, poor Mary Bellows

O, poor Mary Bellows
