IF I COULD GET BACK HOME TO SISTER MARY'S
I WOULDN'T FEEL SO OLD
THERE WOULDN'T BE A DOUBT WHAT I HAVE LIVED WITHOUT
IT'D ALL BE SO CLEAR AT SISTER MARY'S

I'D LOVE TO BE THERE NOW AT SISTER MARY'S
THERE'S COFFEE WHEN YOU'RE COLD
AND WHISKEY WHEN YOU NEEDED IT TO SAY THE THINGS
YOU COULDN'T TELL HER ANY OTHER WAY

MISTAKES I HAD WERE FEW
AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT I'M TELLING YOU
AS I TRY TO CURE THIS HUMAN CONDITION

GOOD AND BAD, GOOD AND BAD
ROMANTICIZING WHAT WE HAD
WE MEDICATE WHEN WE GET SAD
CAUSE THAT MAKES IT ALL LESS SCARY

THE STORIES THAT GET TOLD AT SISTER MARY'S
ARE FICTION'S FAVORITE GOLD
YOU NEVER KNOW IF ANYTHING THAT'S SAID IS TRUE
BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE AT SISTER MARY'S

I LOVE TO CROSS THE LINE AT SISTER MARY'S
I'LL SEE YOU THERE NEXT TIME
AND TELL YOU HOW HURT TO JUST GET UP TODAY
BUT PAIN JUST FADES AWAY AT SISTER MARY'S

GOOD AND BAD, GOOD AND BAD
WE MEDICATE WHEN WE GET SAD
ROMANTICIZING WHAT WE HAD
BUT WE ALL KNOW AT SISTER MARY'S
