HAVE MERCY Â SPENCER BOHREN



The wolf is at the door, but I can't pay any more.

I'm begging to you Lord, have mercy!

If you come back again, I might have it by then.

But you know it just depends - have mercy!



- chorus -

Have mercy! You know that times are tough.

Have mercy! Nobody's got enough.

Have mercy! That's the thing to do.

Have mercy! 'Cause that's the way to live.

Have mercy! You only get what you give.

Have mercy! It comes back to you.



When children die by the gun, something's got to be done.

It ain't enough to just run. Have mercy!

They're taking guns into school. We got to make some new rules.

It's up to me and you. Have mercy!



- chorus -



Well, the cities are broke. Politics is a joke.

You would think they could show some mercy.

But it's getting late. Won't be a thing on your plate

If we continue to wait - have mercy!



- chorus -



Taxes are high, another slice of the pie.

You know as well as I we need mercy.

But there ain't too much left. You ain't seen nothing yet.

We'll never make it unless we have mercy.
