Yeah Have mercy, have mercy Ooh Have mercy people, listen now You know what it means to be left alone Have mercy people You know what it means to be left alone No letter today Not even a call on my telephone Every, every morning Every morning I hear the birds call my name Every morning I hear the birds call my name All the little birds call me Because my heart is so much in pain Help me Have mercy A little loving in this whole world is all I need Hey Have mercy, have mercy now A little loving in this whole world is all I need Misunderstanding with the older woman Has caused my heart to bleed
