Have Mercy Lyrics

Have Mercy lyrics

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
Was strawberry red and mine's pink
rosae
Chorus:
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
playing haggard and jones
I knew right then that there was something
wrong
There's only one reason you play cheatin' songs
Chorus
Well i
went to the bank with my little check book
The cashier he gave me the
strangest look
He said, "you ain't got no money cause you're
overdrawn,
Your man took it all and he's darn gone!"
Chorus
