Albert King - Angel Of Mercy lyrics
rate me<b>Angel Of Mercy</b> by <i>Albert King</i><br />
I went to work this mo&#039;nin&#039;
My foreman looked me in the eye
He said, "Fella I don&#039;t know what&#039;s wrong with ya,
But you look sick enough to die"
He sent me to the company doctor
And he examined from head to toe
"Whatever&#039;s wrong with ya, young man,
My x-rays just won&#039;t show"
I say, angel of mercy
Won&#039;t you please look down on me?
Angel of mercy
A little mercy is all I need
The finance company
They just don&#039;t receive my check
They say they want a payment by Friday
Or they want all-a the furniture back
I went to the credit union
To try to get myself a loan
They said, "I would let ya have it young man,
But we hear that you won&#039;t be workin&#039; here much longer
Angel of mercy
Won&#039;t you please look down on me?
Oh, angel of mercy
A little mercy is all I need
Lord have mercy! Oh angel! Oh!
Oh!
Cut my lights off this mo&#039;nin&#039;
They set my furniture out doors
I was listenin&#039; to the weatherman &#039;while ago
An&#039; he&#039;s says it&#039;s gonna rain an&#039;snow
My daughter&#039;s got pneumonia
An&#039; my son is down with the flu
My whole family&#039;s sufferin&#039; from malnutrition
And I can&#039;t even &#039;fford them soup
I say, angel of mercy
Won&#039;t you please look down on me?
Oh, angel of mercy
A little mercy is all I need
