lyrics

Yellow Lights:

Yellow lights are free and climbing,
up the sad old gray behind me.
Can you help her walk away again?
Blue the color of the water,
Mary and her devil daughter,
drinking rubies in the rain again.

Oh oh oh Mary, don't you die
Oh oh oh Mary, don't you die
'Cause of the color of her eyes!

Green the color of the grasses,
Mary and her new blue lassies,
come a riding in the fall with me.
Gray the shades of all nights past me,
Red the blood inside the old tree,
come a riding in the fall with me!

Oh oh oh Mary, don't you die
Oh oh oh Mary, don't you die
'Cause of the color of her eyes.
