Have 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.
I used to have plenty, plenty money, money, money,
finest clothes in town
But bad luck and trouble, trouble, trouble, tried to
get me down
Mercy, mercy, baby, have mercy on me
Though I done somebody wrong, have mercy every day
Lord, if I been a bad fella, fella, fella, I'm bound
to change my ways
Don't want bad luck and trouble, trouble, trouble, to
follow me all my days, yeah yeah!
Mercy, mercy, baby, have mercy on me
