Have Mercy



Lyrics

Well, I was standing in line at the city bus stop
Soaked to the skin from every rain drop
I see you driving by just like a phantom jet
With your arm around some little brunette

You say you won't be home because you're working late
Honey, I'm no fool, you've been out on a date
The lipstick on your collar gives your game away
It's strawberry red and mine's pink rose

refrain:
Have mercy on me
You treat me so bad I'm in misery
It's breaking my heart, can't you see?
Baby, baby have mercy on me

Well, I called you up on the telephone
I could hear you was playin' Egger and Jones
I knew right then that there was something wrong
'Cause there's only one reason
You're playing cheatin' songs

refrain

Well, I went to the bank with my little checkbook
The cashier, he gave me the strangest look
He said, "You ain't got no money 'cause you're over drawn
Your man took it all and he's done gone!"

Have mercy on me
You treat me so bad I'm in misery
It's breaking my heart, can't you see?
Baby, baby have mercy on me
Have mercy on me
You treed me so bad I'm in misery.
It's breaking my heart
Can't you see?
Baby, baby, have mercy on me
Have mercy on me
You treed me so bad I'm in misery
It's breaking my heart, can't you see?
Baby, baby have mercy on me
