Припев:
Have mercy, have mercy baby
Have mercy, have mercy on me
Well I went to see the gypsy, to have my fortune read
She said man, your baby gonna leave you
Her bags are packed up under the bed
Припев
But if you leave me baby, girl if you put me down
I’m gonna make it to the nearest river child
And jump overboard and drown
Припев
I said hey hey baby, hey hey now
What you tryin’ to do
Hey hey baby, hey hey now
Please don’t say we’re through
Припев
But if you stay baby, I’ll tell you what I’m gonna do
I’m gonna work two jobs, seven days a week
And bring my money back to you
Припев
