Lyrics Mercy Valley - Oh Mercy

Mercy Valley

When all is said and done
I don’t want you around
Preaching all your voodoo man
That’ll only get me down
So turn me into dust
Or put me in the ground
I don’t need no holy man
No, I don’t want him around
Take me out to sea
Throw me overboard
Let the birds pick my brains
Let my bones wash to shore
Let me rest in peace
With no miracles, no tricks
Like Larry had to face
I know that ain’t my fate
Take me where the breeze reigns true
Lay me down stone wide and there
Save your prayers and save yourself
We’re on our own
Soak me in your alcohol
And put me on display
Let the children point at me
And scream and run away
Take me out to sea
Throw me overboard
Let the birds pick my brains
Let my bones wash to shore
Let me rest in peace
With no miracles, no tricks
Like Larry had to face
I know that ain’t my fate
Take me where the breeze reigns true
Lay me down stone wide and there
Save your prayers and save yourself
We’re on our own
