Mercy Songtext
von Tender Mercies

Well I got a field of unrighteousness
Sown with seeds of scorn and bitterness
Down a road I walk with loneliness
But mercy will follow me I′m told
Under this skin once was a heart of stone
It's growing old so very far from home
Well a heart of gold I may someday own
But mercy will follow me I′m told


Mercy will you follow me
Mercy will you follow me
Til my final breath at last I take
Mercy will you follow me
Mercy will you follow me
Til the chains of this old world I finally break

My mother sang a song so sweet and sad
About a man whose love I never had
Well there's a train it's bound for Killian
Mercy will follow me I′m told

Mercy will you follow me
Mercy will you follow me
Til my final breath at last I take
Mercy will you follow me
Mercy will you follow me
Til the chains of this old world I finally break

Til the chains of this old world I finally break
Til the chains of this old world I finally break
