Mercy Mercy lyrics

[Chorus]
Have mercy
Have mercy, baby
Have mercy
Have mercy on me

[Verse 1]
Well I went to see the gypsy
To have my fortune read
She said, "Man, your baby going to leave you
Her bags are packed up under the bed"
That's right

[Chorus]
Have mercy
Have mercy, baby
Have mercy
Have mercy on me

[Verse 2]
But if you leave me baby
Girl, if you put me down
I'm going to make it to the nearest river child
And jump overboard and drown
That's right
[Chorus]
Have mercy
Have mercy, baby
Have mercy
Have mercy on me

[Bridge]
I said hey hey baby, hey hey now
What you trying to do?
Hey hey baby, hey hey now
Please don't say we're through
Yeah yeah yeah

[Chorus]
Have mercy
Have mercy, baby
Have mercy
Have mercy on me

[Verse 3]
But if you stay baby
I tell you what I'm going to do
I'm going to work two jobs, seven days a week
And bring my money home to you
That's right
[Chorus]
Have mercy, please
Have mercy, baby
Have mercy
Have mercy on me
Yeah

Have mercy
Have mercy, baby
Have mercy
Have mercy on me
