Kacey Musgraves Merry Go Round Lyrics
If you ain’t got two kids by 21
You’re probably gonna die alone
At least that’s what tradition told you
And it don’t matter if you don’t believe
Come Sunday morning, you best be there
In the front row, like you’re s’posed to
Same hurt in every heart
Same trailer, different park
Mamas hooked on Mary Kay
Brothers hooked on Mary Jane
And daddy’s hooked on Mary two doors down
Mary, Mary quite contrary
We get bored so we get married
And just like dust we settle in this town
On this broken merry go ’round and ’round and ’round we go
Where it stops nobody knows
And it ain’t slowin’ down
This merry go ’round
We think the first time’s good enough
So we hold on to high school love
Say we won’t end up like our parents
Tiny little boxes in a row
Ain’t want you want, it’s what you know
Just happy in the shoes you’re wearin’
Same checks we’re always cashin’
To buy a little more distraction
Cause Mama’s hooked on Mary Kay
Brother’s hooked on Mary Jane
And daddy’s hooked on Mary two doors down
Mary, Mary quite contrary
We get bored so we get married
And just like dust we settle in this town
On this broken merry go ’round and ’round and ’round we go
Where it stop nobody knows
And it ain’t slowin’ down
This merry go ’round
Mary, Mary quite contrary
We’re so bored until we’re buried
And just like dust we settle in this town
On this broken merry go ’round
Merry go ’round
Jack and Jill went up the hill
Jack burned out on booze and pills
And Mary had a little lamb
Mary just don’t give a damn no more
