Have Mercy

[Verse 1:] I was standing in line At the city bus stop Soaked to the skin from every rain drop I see you driving by Just like a phantom jet With your arm around some little brunette You say you won't be home Because you're working late Honey, I'm no fool You've been out on a date The lipstick on your collar gives the game away It's strawberry red And mine's pink rose [Chorus:] Have mercy on me You treat me so bad I'm in misery It's breaking my heart Can't you see? Baby, baby Have mercy on me [Verse 2:] Well I called you up on the telephone I could hear you was playing Haggard and Jones I knew right then Tthat there was something wrong There's only one reason you play cheating songs [Repeat Chorus:] [Verse 3:] Went to the bank with my little checkbook The cashier he gave me the strangest look He said you ain't got no money Cause you're overdrawn Your man took it all and he's done gone [Repeat Chorus:]
