Lord, Have Mercy

Written by: Tom Rhodes, Zachary Kibbee

I’ve tried with the golden rule

I’m tired of being a fool

I’m strong but it’s hard to stand

I’d jump but I might not land

Oh Lord

(Lord have mercy) It got the best of me

(Lord have mercy) I’m shaking at the knees

(Please have mercy) Oh baby, there’s not much left of me

I’m sure that I’m not the first

But oh this fall is the worst

Oh I’m lost in the world alone

I’m lost but I’m right at home

Oh Yeah

(Lord have mercy) It got the best of me

(Lord have mercy) I’m shaking at the knees

(Please have mercy) Oh baby, there’s not much left of me

I’m on a bad luck streak

Body tired mind weak

Too hard to cry too soft to speak

Now there ain’t much left of me

(Lord have mercy) It got the best of me

(Lord have mercy) I’m shaking at the knees

(Please have mercy) Oh baby, there’s not much left of me

(Lord have mercy) Oh Lord have mercy on me

(Lord have mercy) Lord you gotta help me now

(Please have mercy) Oh baby, baby, Lord have mercy on me

(Lord have mercy) It got the best of me

(Lord have mercy) I’m shaking at the knees

(Please have mercy) Oh baby, there’s not much left of me
