[Verse 1]
Life is not easy for Sister Marie
She finds that her thought is in error
Her captive face haunting the mirror
Discomforts her
[Verse 2]
She listens intently to Father McGhee
As he tells her that faith is a blessing
And she worries that he might be guessing
His irony
[Chorus]
It would be nice just to live like a lady
And to have someone to marry
It would be nice to have someone to care for
Someone to care when I'm buried
[Verse 3]
Carefully presenting the semblance of peace
She fulfills her various duties
Until all the changes she goes through
Have wearied her
[Verse 4]
She writes to her sister at school in the East
To enquire how she is progressing
And startles herself by confessing
Her jealousy
