Lyrics:

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 Don't leave me 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...
