Lyrics
Mercy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Your pillow don't get wet when I go to bed and weep
Your eyes don't turn red when I don't get my sleep
Your world don't fall apart when my phone don't ring
You say you feel for me but you don't feel a thing
Mercy have mercy on me mercy have mercy on me
A little bit of understanding and a little bit of sympathy
And a little bit of mercy on me (eu-eu-eu eu-eu-eu)
You don't like the clothes I wear and you don't like my friends
You don't like my job or the town we're livin' in
You don't like my mama and you don't like my dog
I bet if the truth was known you don't like this song
Mercy have mercy on me...
