have mercy baby on a poor girl like me

you know i'm fallin' fallin' fallin' at your feet

i'm tingling right from my head to my toes

so help me help me help me make the feeling grow

CHORUS:

'cause when the loving starts and the lights go down

and there's not another living soul around

you can rule me until the sun comes up

and you say that you love me

have pity baby just when i thought it was over

now you got me runnin', runnin', runnin' for cover

i'm begging you for a little sympathy

'cause if you use me again it'll be the end of me

(repeat chorus)

baby, baby, hope you're gonna stay away

'cause i'm getting weaker, weaker everyday

i guess i'm not as strong as i used to be

and if you use me again it'll be the end of me

(repeat chorus)

fallin', fallin', fallin........

(repeat
