Mary was an only child / Art Garfunkel  
 
 
Mary was an only child 
nobody held her nobody smiled
 
She was born in a trailer wreched and poor
and she shone like a gem in a five and dime store
 
Mary had no friends at all
just famous faces pinned to the wall
 
All of them watched her None of them saw
that she shone like a gem in a five and dime store
 
And if you watch stars at night
and you find them shining equally bright
 
you might have seen Jesus
and not have known what you saw
 
Who would notice a gem in a five and dime store.dime store.
