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

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've got her chained down

She starts actin' up again

I'm goin' down to the bus station

With a suitcase in my hand

I'm goin' down to the bus station

With a suitcase in my hand

I'm gonna grab me an armful of greyhound

And ride just as close 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

With a matchbox hole in my clothes yes

We are Standin' wonderin'

With a matchbox hole in my clothes yes

Oh i got a long way to get there

And i got-a some time to go

Scat singing have mercy baby

Have mercy baby

Mercy baby

Oh

Have mercy baby

With a please With a please

Have mercy baby

With a please

With a please
