Mercy, Mercy, Mercy

Ronald Miller, Don Covay

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

[Verse 1]
Well I went to see a gypsy
Had my fortune read
She said "Pickett, your baby's gonna leave you"
Her bag is packed up under her bed, I cried

[Chorus]
Have mercy
Have mercy, baby
I cried mercy, lord
Have mercy on me

[Verse 2]
Well now if you stay here baby
I tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna work three jobs, seven days a week
Bring my money to you, I cried

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

[Verse 3]
When I heard baby, heard child
What you're trying to do
Hey baby, hey child
Lord, don't say we're through
Oh no, no
Oh no

[Verse 4]
Well now if my baby leave me
Girl, if you put me down
Well I'm going to the nearest river, child
Jump overboard and drown

[Outro]
Oh yeah baby, mercy
Mercy, baby don't leave me
Lord have mercy, mercy
Lord have mercy, mercy
