Somebody have mercy and tell me what is wrong with me
Somebody have mercy and tell me what is wrong with me
Sometimes I don't know how I stand the things this woman do to me
Let me tell you
When I think about how she do me the tears fall down like rain
Like rain
When I think about how she do me the tears fall down like rain
Like rain
When I think I've got her chained down she starts acting up again
Oh
Let me tell you
I'm going down to the bus station with a suitcase in my hand
Yes I am
I'm going down to the bus station with a suitcase in my hand
Yes I am
I'm gonna grab me an armful of greyhound and ride just as close I can
Do that thing for me now
Let me tell you one more time
Somebody have mercy
I wonder what is wrong with me
I wonder what is wrong with me
Lord have mercy
Sometimes I don't know how I stand the things this woman do to me
Do that one more time
My fellas
I'm standing here wondering baby
With a matchbox hole in my clothes
Standing wondering baby
With a matchbox hole in my clothes
Oh
I got a long way to get there and I got-a some time to go
Somebody have mercy and tell me what is wrong with me
Sometimes I don't know how I stand the things this woman do to me
Let me tell you
When I think about how she do me the tears fall down like rain
Like rain
When I think about how she do me the tears fall down like rain
Like rain
When I think I've got her chained down she starts acting up again
Oh
Let me tell you
I'm going down to the bus station with a suitcase in my hand
Yes I am
I'm going down to the bus station with a suitcase in my hand
Yes I am
I'm gonna grab me an armful of greyhound and ride just as close I can
Do that thing for me now
Let me tell you one more time
Somebody have mercy
I wonder what is wrong with me
I wonder what is wrong with me
Lord have mercy
Sometimes I don't know how I stand the things this woman do to me
Do that one more time
My fellas
I'm standing here wondering baby
With a matchbox hole in my clothes
Standing wondering baby
With a matchbox hole in my clothes
Oh
I got a long way to get there and I got-a some time to go
