Mary Long – Deep Purple Piano, Guitar, Ukulele Chord/Tab and Lyric
Artist: Deep Purple
Album/Category: Deep Purple


(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover/Lord/Paice)
From "Who Do We Think We Are", 1973

Intro: Gm

VERSE-1:

Mary Long is a h[Bb/G]ypocrite
She d[C/G]oes all the things that she tells us not to do
Selling filth from a corner sh[Bb/G]op
And kni[C/G]tting patterns to the high street queue
She paints roses, even [Bb/G]makes them smell good
And t[C/G]hen she draws titties on the khazy wall
Drowns kittens just to [Bb/G]get a thrill
[C/G]And writes sermons in the Sun-day Chronicle

CHORUS:

How did you lose your virginity, Ma-ry Long ?
When will you lose your stupidity, Mary Long ?

VERSE-2:

Mary told Johnny not to write such trash
Said it was a waste of public money
She made a fuss, they made apologies
But everybody thought the show was funny
When the nation knew you'd had children
It came as such a surprise
We really didn't know you'd had it in you
How you did it we can only surmise

CHORUS:

How did you lose your virginity, Mary Long ?
When will you lose your stupidity, Mary Long ?

VERSE-3

Mary Long, you're not alone
But you're a long way behind our times
What we do in full frontal view
Is more honest than your clean-up mind
What I'm saying, Mary Long is
When you can spare a minute
Go find your friend the porny Lord
Dig your self a hole and jump in it

CHORUS:

How did you lose your virginity, Mary Long ?
When will you lose your stupidity, Mary Long ?
