[Lyrics to "Somebody Have Mercy"]

Somebody have mercy

And tell me what is wrong with me

Somebody have mercy

And tell me what is wrong with me

Sometimes I don't know how I stand

The things this woman do to me

Let me tell you, when I think about how she do me

The tears fall down like rain, like rain

When I think about how she do me

The tears fall down like rain, like rain

When I think I got her chained down

She starts actin' up again

Oh let me tell you, I'm goin' down to the bus station

With a suitcase in my hand, yes I am

I'm goin' down to the bus station with a suitcase in my hand

Yes I am

I'm gonna grab me an armful of Greyhound

And ride just as far as I can

Somebody have mercy

I wonder what is wrong with me

Somebody have mercy

I wonder what is wrong with me

Sometimes I don't know how I stand

The things this woman do to me

I'm standin' here wonderin' baby

Will a matchbox hold my clothes?

Yes I am

Standin' wonderin' baby

Will a matchbox hold my clothes?

Yes I am

I've got a long way to get there

And I got-a some time to go
