"Cross-Eyed Mary" is a song by the British progressive rock band Jethro Tull from their album Aqualung (1971).

The song is about "Cross-Eyed Mary", a schoolgirl prostitute[3] who prefers the company of "leching greys" over her schoolmates. It was intended as a companion piece to "Aqualung", the opening album track about a homeless man. The Aqualung character is given a cameo in "Cross-Eyed Mary".

"Cross-Eyed Mary" was ranked the 12th best Jethro Tull song in the book Rock - Das Gesamtwerk der größten Rock-Acts im Check.

Re-recorded the last vocal line which was a mess, and published the mix. If has something that I could do please let me know.

I put down a track but I played to the BT which was a karaoke track, and the volume was very low, which made it hard. It's in sync, but I will probably want to do another.

Hey Bob! Thank you for the drum track. Seems great to me. If you really want to do another one let me know if there is anything that I could do in collab to help you and make it easier for you.

@Bob : Well I tried to add another backing track (mattos) with the original song and muted the karaoke track. I had to edit a little to sync. Don't know if will help you.

Like a century ago I visited your collaboration and left a comment... I am back with a piano track, please review... hope you like it. Working on the guitars now. If I may suggest, Hector’s super bass track would be better synced at 00:00.020 in my opinion... all good if you don't like the suggestion. Great vocals and bass!!!
