๐ Lyrics
I took a walk down the avenue
Saw this man that I thought I knew
Said, "Hey, man, how's your day?"
He looked at me and this is what he said
He don't wanna be a rich man or poor man
Wants to live his life livin' like a free man
House of rocks, strugglin' every day
'Cause Lord, it's freezin'
He's got a bag of paper and a lonely dog
Keepin' the freeze away
So damn cold
He's got a faded picture of his wife and kids
And a house so far away
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Lord, it's cold and the mercury's fallin'
Hear the cries behind the wall
It's the lady from down the hall
Every day livin' in fear
I put my heart inside her tears
Got a man she couldn't please
She got a baby in her belly and one on her knees
She needs to leave
'Cause Lord, it's freezin'
She got no money and no kin, no friends anymore
He chased them all away
So damn cold
She said the scars and the pain
They never will change
People, hear me when I say
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Somebody tell me, how can it be?
So many people are livin' in need
No plans for the future, no hope in their heart
Where do we start?
Bench warm inna ghetto
We a mash 'em and then send them for later
Take your grades up, me no think so
Back home again is we a follow
It's never too late
We'll always be great
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Life is a game, money from the fire
Which one a live and a poor man die?
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Life is a game, money from the fire
Which one a live and a poor man die?
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Get a grip, get a grip, get a grip, get a grip
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
It could be you, it could be me
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Saw this man that I thought I knew
