Intro
Glenboy Music
Mmm-mmm
Verse 1
Empty pots
Three small faces looking up for answers
Maria packed the denim bag
Leaving behind a man who loved her like a queen
Pre-Chorus
She found a boy with smoother hands
She traded gold for shining sand
Now the dinner table stays quiet
Chorus
Oh Maria
Tell me why you ran away
Maria
My three children cry for you today
Why you ran away
My three children cry for you today
(Cry for you today)
Post-Chorus
Yeah
Lord have mercy
Oh-oh
Verse 2
That boy won't build a house
Josh had his heart cut by a rusty blade
Sleepless nights
Broken promises floating in the evening air
Pre-Chorus
She found a boy with smoother hands
She traded gold for shining sand
Now the dinner table stays quiet
Chorus
Oh Maria
Tell me why you ran away
Maria
My three children cry for you today
Why you ran away
My three children cry for you today
(Cry for you today)
Bridge
Josh is walking
Josh is waiting
Josh is weeping
Underneath the mango tree
Watching birds fly south
Instrumental Break
Chorus
Oh Maria
Tell me why you ran away
Maria
My three children cry for you today
Why you ran away
My three children cry for you today
(Cry for you today)
