Have Mercy lyrics

Well, I was standin' in line at the city bus stop

Soaked to the skin from ever' rain drop

I see you drivin' by just like a phantom jet

With your arm around some little brunette

You say you won't be home because you're workin' 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 rosé

Have mercy on me

You treat me so bad, I'm in misery

It's breakin' my heart, can't ya see?

Baby, baby, have mercy on me

Well, I called you up on the telephone

I could hear you was playin' Haggard and Jones

I knew right then that there was somethin' wrong

There's only one reason you play cheatin' songs

Have mercy on me

You treat me so bad, I'm in misery

It's breakin' my heart, can't ya see?

Baby, baby, have mercy on me

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 overdrawn

Your man took it all and he's darn gone

Have mercy on me

You treat me so bad, I'm in misery

It's breakin' my heart, can't ya see?

Baby, baby, have mercy on me

Have mercy on me

You treat me so bad, I'm in misery

It's breakin' my heart, can't ya see?

Baby, baby, have mercy on me
