Rod Stewart - Sweet Lady Mary Lyrics
Sweet Lady Mary has to rest her poor head
Wakes in the morning with her breakfast in bed
I tried to help her but I did not know, how
I tried to love her but it's all over now
Except a sunny day
Steal away
Steal away
Over the stones along the dusty old road
With every footstep one more tale is told
With every turning one more side to see
Sweet Lady Mary's seen the last of me
A lesson is learnt
I'll steal away
Steal away
Her Spanish habits are so hard to forget
The lady lied with every breath, I accept
Was a matter of time before my face did not fit
I knew all along I'd have to quit
Anyway now, I better not
Waste anymore of your time
I'll steal away
Steal away
I think I'll go back home and start all again
Where the Gulf stream waters tend to ease the pain
And on a new day when I've mended the wound
Sweet Lady Mary's gate, I swear, I'll be bound
But before I sit down again
And waste anymore of your time
I better steal away
Steal away
Steal away

Rod Stewart Sweet Lady Mary Comments
I agree with the posts here, Ronnie Lane could write the most heartfelt songs. Sad he was given the short straw like so many of the musical geniuses who just passed through too fast.
omg...raw rod!!! I lovehim!!! nobody has that voice!
The Faces were one of the greatest bands ever.
so good ...
Love this Era
Great music and they are always having so much fun.
Rock zoals Rock bedoeld is, ook met balades
Beautiful. At their peak here.
Saw thees guys back in the seventies.. this Vis shows just what a great bunch of fun guys they were
Just fantastic!
I wonder who the 18 dum-dums who gave this great performance thumbs down are...
Oh, they just lack taste - the poor things.
So that is where Ron Wood learned to play the steel guitar. I just saw him in MetLife Stadium playing that steel guitar on a Rolling Stones song with Jagger and the crew in 2019.
CHE FACE BUFE 😀😀😀 MA SEMPRE UNICI ❤❤❤ !!!!!👌👌👌
his band is just so sweetly soulful and so completely as one, the FEEL of their love for each other is just so palpable. drawing from country, soul, funk, folk, gospel, blues...sweetest mixture of styles. Thank you Rod for leading this band to the top of the mountain, pick such sweet fruit and share it with us all!!!
Holy jesus that was unbelievable.
My fantasy band,if I could be in any band.They looked like they were just having such fun in their camaraderie.Id have to learn an instrument first though..Suberb.
These boys were really game to go along with the lip-sync idea to get TV exposure almost a decade before MTV. Ronnie moving over ( at 1:44) to "cover" the steel solo. Who's on acoustic guitar? ;- }
The band might not be live but Rod certainly is :-)
ROD ME CONTOU QUE TOMOU UM BANHO DE SANGUE NUM RITUAL DE VOODOO PARA FAZER O SUCESSO MONSTRO NO MUNDO DA MÚSICA QUE ELE FEZ. O SANGUE FOI DE UMA CRIANÇA NEGRA. EU TAMBÉM INVOQUEI O PODER DO MAL PARA FAZER SUCESSO. OLHEM SERGIO PATTO SABRINA PARLATORE NO YOUTUBE.
El mejor!!!!
Rod and Woody are pelted with flowers in this set and why not? They conquered your eardrum first.
Rod wears a women 👚 shirt
The shirt is a mean's Rod is wearing,most people wore them in those days.
OK, 1:53 who threw that on the steel guitar?!
This and Debris are the best faces songs ever produced :-)
Luv this song takes me back ronnie L was a great writer🤩🤩🤩🤩
The lads are definitely full of the old Mary Jayne I feel ha ha
Faces were brilliant Ronnie lane wrote or co wrote most of there songs but din't get to sing too many that's one of the reasons he left the band
Good time in faces run
Once u feel this vibe...HOOKED🌹
What song is Rod's with only woman's boots/heels in the video?
Hot Legs?
i like these guys ! Super cool band and they look like only having fun ! Drinking, smoking singing .. super guys
Ronnie Wood plays a mean steel guitar!
exelent ,encore et toujours the faces merci aux musiciens et rod stewart pour leurs oeuvre musical qui restera pour tres longtemps dans nos album pour ceux de ma generation avant et future ,8 n'aiment pas quand meme ,je comprends pas mais chacun son oreille on a pas la meme merci the faces
The Rod I have always loved.
Rodney at his best...Ronnie Lane , Wood , Ian ....FACES
Sir rod at his best
Good stuff right there...
Rod and the boys...many great songs by Faces...one of my fav bands
What a geeza
I sawRod back in 74 and I fell in love with his voice and his music and here I'm today still loving it 45years later.
sir rod fucking legend what a voice what a band pure class
Beautiful song!
Never seen this, thanks for posting, love The Faces.
They could write the best ballads and the rollickingest rock songs, bless 'em.
You cant get much more soulful than this. nuff said
Fantastic - but are they miming? It sounds extremely close to the version on Long Player and there's an acoustic guitar which no-one seems to be playing.
Rod's definitely live. You could well be right about the backing track though. This happened a lot in the 70s at the Beeb.
It's obvious that the music isn't live. Maybe Rod was really singing, but as been said, there are instruments not being played by the guys
And backing vocals!
Yeah a lot of bands who played ‘“live” on TV just had the vocals live and the band just miming. Really sucks and a horrible time for live music!
I like to think when they are all smiling and chuckling to each other during the steel guitar solo it was them thinking to themselves “what the fuck are we doing”
God bless these men.
they're life and ways shine on all of us.
once in a lifetime right here.
rocknroll lives
Bjr xjx
Hah, they all are "High". Excellent
They don't look high at all,. They're miming (apart from Rod's sublime vocal) and they're taking the piss.
Jimmy Ryan Coventry proper band xjx
As close to" perfect" as you can get. Can see and hear why the Stones wanted Ronnie.
Woody and Richards were made to play together.
Seriously, has there been a better singer than Rod at this stage of his career? Get yourselves on gasoline alley capello, it'll blow your mind.
I put my headphones on when I listen to the faces, they sound even better.
scouserla1 Rod back then was an awesome singer, the band were fucking ace too, love em
scouserla1
scouserla1 Paul Rogers from FREE
Those were the days😍
Class song class band
The great Ronnie Lane co-wrote this song. He is so underrated. I love the way he end some of his songs with a particular figure. Rod Stewart's voice is perfect. It's a shame he didn't take the faces with him on his great conquering singing journey.
+scouserla1 it was a big factor, but Ronnie had also had enough of the crazy lifestyle that went with The Faces. Unfortunately the public never took to Slim Chance and he never received the critical acclaim his solo output deserved. He was unique and some of his tracks (The Poacher, Anniversary, Roll On Babe, Done This One Before etc...) are up there with the best of anything Rod & The Faces recorded.
I wouldn't argue about Ronnie Lanes writing prowess. Didn't he write "stone" the Dylan type song the Faces recorded?
harrylado Debris is another hauntingly beautiful Ronnie Lane piece. The man was a genius.
Ronnie and Pete Townshend did an album together called "Rough Mix" that's got some good writing on it.
Completely agree. Slim Chance Mk II was THE best band I ever saw... period. Nice to see old Slim Chancers perpetuating Plonk's memory...
Smilin' Mac. Priceless...
Wow! This must be the only surviving edition of Disco 2 as most episodes have been wiped.
Simply wonderful.
Man...Just love this version. Isn't it from Dylan?
+Dave Kidd no mate, think yer getting mixed up with Wicked Messenger.
Rod and Ronnie co wrote this song.
One of my all time favorite songs!
Ma dad got me into The Faces before I could walk. Always skipped this and Flying in my younger days. They are now 2 of my favourites. Timeless.
I love The Faces!! So glad I got to see them live twice back in the day!
patricia goodman ..... i also seen them at Goose Lake, concert in Jackson, Michigan... 1970.
I saw them in LA in 1974 (75?).
i love rods voice id give anything for that
jeanie jeanie Who wouldn't
Matthew Rosemier 74 likely they split after
Thanks for you're music! Got all you're records. Love to see you togheter. Rip Ronnie and Mac. Keep a happy smile on you're face(es), Rod, Woody and Kenny.
Awesome song never ,saw this video. Thanks for sharing!!!!!
So lovely!
Thank You
