Paroles:
I was standing in line at the city bus stop
Soaked to the skin from every rain drop
I see you driving by just like a phantom jet
With your arm around some little brunette
You say you won't be home because you're working late
Honey, I'm no fool you've been out on a date
The lipstick on your collar gives your game away
Was strawberry red and mine's pink rosae
Chorus:
Have mercy on me
You treat me so bad I'm in misery
It's breaking my heart, can't you see?
Baby,baby, have mercy on me
Well i called you up on the telephone
I could hear you was playing haggard and jones
I knew right then that there was something wrong
There's only one reason you play cheatin' songs
Chorus
Well i went to the bank with my little check book
The cashier he gave me the strangest look
He said, "you ain't got no money cause you're overdrawn,
Your man took it all and he's darn gone!"
Chorus
