Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It seems life has played a game on me
I'm lost in a sea of misery, yeah
My love has turned his back on me
No, no, heartache, why won't you let me be?
[Verse 2]
I said now now, baby, have some mercy please
Don't make me beg on bended knees, oh, please
Mercy, mercy, mercy please, have mercy on me
Mercy, mercy, mercy please
[Verse 3]
Oh, how can I face life without you?
What would I do if we were through?
[Verse 4]
Don't you know, Daddy? I wait for you every single night
Hopin' you'll return and make things right
You don't show, and I'm sittin' here all alone, all alone
To pray you're gonna call me on the phone
[Verse 5]
Baby, have some mercy please
Don't make your mama on bended knees, oh, please
Mercy, mercy, mercy please, have mercy on me
Mercy, mercy, mercy please
[Verse 6]
You know I love you and I'm beggin'
For one more chance, one chance, once more
[Verse 7]
I know life's got many a twist
And lovin' you, Daddy, is the thing I cannot resist
Your love and understandin' you've been givin', givin', givin'
Without it, I just can't go on livin'
[Verse 8]
Baby, have some mercy please
Don't make me beg on bended knees, I said now
Mercy, mercy, mercy, whoa, please have mercy on me
Mercy, mercy, mercy, woo, have mercy on me, baby
Just one more time, have mercy on me, baby
Help me now, oh, baby
