I went to work this mo'nin' My foreman looked me in the eye He said, "Fella I don't know what's wrong with ya But you look sick enough to die"
He sent me to the company doctor And he examined from head to toe Whatever's wrong with ya, young man My x-rays just won't show
I say, angel of mercy Won't you please look down on me? Angel of mercy A little mercy is all I need
The finance company They just can't recieve my check They say they want a payment by Friday Or they want all-a the furniture back
I went to the credit union To try to get myself a loan They said, "I would let ya have it young man But we hear that you won't be workin' here much longer
Angel of mercy Won't you please look down on me? Oh, angel of mercy A little mercy is all I need
Lord have mercy Oh angel Oh Oh
Cut my lights off this mo'nin' They set my furniture out doors I was listenin' to the weatherman 'while ago An' he's says it's gonna rain an' snow
My daughter's got pneumonia An' my son is down with the flu My whole family's sufferin' from malnutrition And I can't even 'fford them soup
I say, angel of mercy Won't you please look down on me? Oh, angel of mercy A little mercy is all I needTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
