Everybody's Cryin' Mercy(iTunes Originals Version) - Bonnie Raitt

作曲：Mose Allison

I don't believe the things I'm seeing

I've wondering about

the things I've heard

Everybody's crying mercy

But they don't know

the meaning of the word

It's a bad enough situation

And is sure enough getting worse

Everybody's crying justice

Just as long as there's business first

Toe to toe touch and go

Give a cheer get your souvenir

People running round in circles

And I still don't know what we've headed for

Everybody's crying peace on earth

Just as long as we win this war

Straight ahead knock em dead

Pack your kit choose your hypocrite

You don't have to go to off-Broadway

To see something plain absurd

Everybody's crying mercy

But they don't know

the meaning of the word

Nobody

knows the meaning of

the word
