Mercy Songtext
von Peter and the Wolf
Mercy Songtext
Johnny was getting on
An alcoholic son
Never you mind your family
They never made you happy
I was his only friend
Sad that it had to end
You only had two children
And your wife died with him
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Time now for me to do
What he had asked me to
Promised I′d make it easy
Said that I'd take him with me
He lay upon his bed
Snorted his drunken head
Standing by her body
No time to make amends
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
I haven′t told anyone
Take this to my grave
Was too much to ask of me
Eleven years of age
I haven't told anyone
Take this to my grave
Was too much to ask of me
Eleven years of age
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down and kill someone?
An alcoholic son
Never you mind your family
They never made you happy
I was his only friend
Sad that it had to end
You only had two children
And your wife died with him
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Time now for me to do
What he had asked me to
Promised I′d make it easy
Said that I'd take him with me
He lay upon his bed
Snorted his drunken head
Standing by her body
No time to make amends
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
I haven′t told anyone
Take this to my grave
Was too much to ask of me
Eleven years of age
I haven't told anyone
Take this to my grave
Was too much to ask of me
Eleven years of age
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down on everyone?
Oh, what have I done?
What if I break down and kill someone?
