john lee hooker - have mercy on my soul lyrics

Loading...

when my first wife left me, boy
put me out on the highway
when my first wife left me, left me
put me out on the highway
and ever since that day
my life ain’t been the same to me no more

i had a good girl
good as she could be
i had a good girl, good girl
good as she could be
but the reason that she left me
i wanted every women that i seen, yes i did

watch this now:

i’ve been drinkin’ and gamblin’, drinkin’ and gamblin’
ever since my wife been gone
drinkin’ and gamblin’, drinkin’ and gamblin’
ever since my wife been gone
i found the highway
the highway have been my home

look at here now:

i’m sitting down thinking this morning
’bout my wife and child
i’m sitting down thinking this morning
boy, ’bout my wife and child
i wanna go back home so bad
and tell her i just don’t know what to do

i left my wife and my baby
my baby girl was only 4 days old
i left my wife and my baby
and my little girl was only 4 days old
and don’t you know boy just one thing
lord just keeps on worrying me, yes he do

look at here what i’m holding:

i hope my little baby girl haven’t learned to count on a man deading
and boy that keeps on worryin’ me
just one thing hurt me so badly
that keeps on worryin’ me
i hope my little baby girl haven’t learned to count on a man deading
and lord and that’s what keep on worryin’ me

i wanna go back home
i wanna go back home so bad
i wanna go back home
i wanna go back home so bad
i wanna get my wife and my baby back again
i wanna go back home to stay, yes yeah

and then i said to my wife
i said “baby! i ain’t no go drinkin’ and gamblin’ no more”
i said “baby, baby! drikin’ and gamblin’
drinkin’ and gamblin’ no more”
i was dead home with you baby
live like a madman should

i said “baby! i teach my little baby girl, teach her, teach her
how to call me daddy one more time
baby teach my little baby girl
to call me daddy just one more time
i been gone so long, so long
and she forgot my name

please teach her
how to call me daddy one more time
please teach her
that i’m her daddy
baby….”
