||0||0Mary was an only child,
Nobody held her, nobody smiled
She was born in a trailer wretched 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 the 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.
