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)
