Have Mercy Baby - Original |
Somewhere on the hill? |
Chasing some poor criminal |
And I guess they’re out to kill |
Oh there must be shackles on his feet |
And mother in his eyes |
Stumbling through the Devil dark |
With the hound pack in full cry |
Have mercy on the criminal |
Who is running from the law |
Are you blind to the winds of change? |
Don’t you hear him anymore? |
Saying, «Lord you gotta help me |
Now I am never gonna sin again |
Take these chains from around my legs |
Sweet Jesus I’ll be your friend» |
Now have you ever seen the white teeth gleam |
While you lie on a cold damp ground? |
Taking in the face of a rifle butt |
While the wardens hold you down |
And you’ve never seen a friend in years |
Oh it turns your heart to stone |
You jump the wall and the dogs run free |
And the grave gonna be your home |
Have mercy on the criminal |
Who is running from the law |
Are you blind to the winds of change? |
Don’t you hear him anymore? |
Saying, «Lord you gotta help me |
Now I am never gonna sin again |
Take these chains from around my legs |
Sweet Jesus I’ll be your friend» |
Have mercy on the criminal |
Who is running from the law |
Are you blind to the winds of change? |
Don’t you hear him anymore? |
Saying, «Lord you gotta help me |
Now I am never gonna sin again |
Take these chains from around my legs |
Sweet Jesus I’ll be your friend» |
Somewhere on the hill? |
Chasing some poor criminal |
