One in a while there comes a chance For boys & girls to share romance I'm not deaf, I was too blind to see Oh please have mercy on fools like me My baby was what we've all dreamed of Before did to me with all her love I walked the shoes right off my feet Oh please have mercy on fools like me (x2): Why did I leave her alone to stay & go on back to my rough & rowdy ways? If I could see her, here's what I'd say: "I miss you, baby, in so many ways" My love forever she would be Oh please have mercy on fools like me
