Mercy, Mercy - Don Covay/The Goodtimers

Written by：Ronald Miller/Don Covay

Have mercy

Have mercy baby

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

Well I went to see a gypsy

And had my fortune read

She said don your baby's gonna leave you

Her back is packed up under the bed

And I cry

Have mercy

Have mercy baby

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

I say if you leave me baby

Girl if you put me down

Well I'm a goin' to the nearest river child

And jump from above to the ground

Jump jump jump

Have mercy

Have mercy baby

Mercy yeah

Have mercy

Have mercy on me

Well hey hey baby hey hey now

What you tryin' to do huh

Hey hey baby hey hey now

Please don't say we're through

I said if you stay baby

I tell you what I'm gonna do

I'm gonna work to a job seven days a week

And bring my money home to you

Well I say mercy

Mercy mercy mercy

Mercy mercy mercy
