Got me way down here.
Treat me just like a dog.
Got me way down here, baby.
Treat me just like a dog.
How can ya do it now, baby?
Good as I have been to you.

Baby, baby, yes have mercy.
Please have mercy now.
Baby, baby.
Please have mercy now.
You ought to be ashamed, baby.
To blind me like you do.

Yes, have mercy on me!

I believe your heart, baby.
It is made of marble stone.
I believe your heart, baby.
It is made of marble stone.
I don't believe now, baby
You know what mercy mean.
