Hey, mercy, please, on my knees, can you come around now?
Don't delay, can you stay? Got things to talk about
My love's all gone, I've been wronged, can you help me?
As a friend, you always said, I'd meet a bad end
(Chorus)
Oh, baby, I'm down and out again
I'm so down, down, down and out
Saw an unaccompanied girl, such a girl as I've known before
I took a risk, come to this, ain't got no more love
So anytime, I can't find my peace of mind
Who can I blame, I'm ashamed, nothing to my name
(Repeat Chorus)
I wanna see, I wanna feel some security
Must make a start, change my part, in history
You know the score, told me so, but we make mistakes
I was paid for the ways that I carried on...
(Repeat Chorus)
