Mercy Mercy Mercy Lyrics - Snow

Took a walk down the avenue 

Saw this man that I thought I knew 

I said to the man "How's your day?" 

He looked at me and this is what he said 

He don't wanna be a rich man, a poor man 

He wants to live his life live it like a free man 

Has to work, struggling everyday 

Coz Lord it's freezing (It's so cold) 

He's got a bag of paper and a bottle of rum 

Keeping the freeze away 

It's so damn cold 

He's got his favourite picture of his wife and kids 

And a house so far away 

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy 

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy 

It could be you, it could be me 

(Lord it's cold and the mercury's falling) 

She hides behind the wall 

It's the lady from down the hall 

Everyday living in fear 

I'll put my heart inside her tears 

Got a man she couldn't please 

She got a baby in her belly, one on her knees 

She needs to eat 

Coz Lord it's freezing (It's so cold) 

She got no money in her purse, no friends any more 

He chased them all away 

It's so damn cold 

She's got ???, never change 

People hear me when I say 

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy 

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy 

It could be you, it could be me 

Somebody tell me how does it feel 

Some many people living in fear 

No place for the future, no hope in your heart 

Where do we start? 

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy 

Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy 

It could be you, it could be me 

??? 

Let the poor man die 

?? in the air and it will follow up in your eye 

This is the truth, me tell no lie
