Lyrics

Pray for me Mary Magdalen
Pray for me, pray for me, Mary, Sweet Mary
I’m on my knees down at your hem
Bowing my head like a white nun orchid
I swear I’ll never etc.Amen
Then I think, Oh, but then again..

I need you so Mary Magdalen
Need you so, need you so Mary, O Mary
I think you know how it is with men
Mercy on the sons of Onin
All along they read you wrong
Just like me…but then again

I’ve been bad, I’ve been bad
I need someone to tell
Open me with your skeleton key
See for yourself

Pray for me Mary Magdalen
Pray for me
I’m on my knees before you again

It’s because you sinned
You got to him
O sweet Mary Magdalen
Sweet Mary Magdalen
