Mercy Mercy Mercy

Took a walk down the avenue

Saw this man that I thought I knew

I said to the man "How's your day?"

He looked at me and this is what he said

He don't wanna be a rich man, a poor man

He wants to live his life live it like a free man

Has to work, struggling everyday

Coz Lord it's freezing (It's so cold)

He's got a bag of paper and a bottle of rum

Keeping the freeze away

It's so damn cold

He's got his favourite picture of his wife and kids

And a house so far away

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy

It could be you, it could be me

(Lord it's cold and the mercury's falling)

She hides behind the wall

It's the lady from down the hall

Everyday living in fear

I'll put my heart inside her tears

Got a man she couldn't please

She got a baby in her belly, one on her knees

She needs to eat

Coz Lord it's freezing (It's so cold)

She got no money in her purse, no friends any more

He chased them all away

It's so damn cold

She's got ???, never change

People hear me when I say

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy

It could be you, it could be me

Somebody tell me how does it feel

Some many people living in fear

No place for the future, no hope in your heart

Where do we start?

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy

It could be you, it could be me

???

Let the poor man die

?? in the air and it will follow up in your eye

This is the truth, me tell no lie

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
