Bonnie Raitt - Everybody's Cryin' Mercy Lyrics
I don't believe the things I'm seein'I've been wonderin' 'bout some things I've heardEverybody's crying mercyWhen they don't know the meaning of the wordA bad enough situationIs sure enough getting worseEverybody's crying justiceJust as soon as there's business firstToe to toe, touch and goGive a cheer and get your own souvenirWell you know the people running round in circlesDon't know what they're headed forEverybody's crying peace on earthJust as soon as we win this warStraight ahead, gotta knock em deadSo pack your kit, choose your own hypocriteYou don't have to go to off-broadwayTo see something plain absurdEverybody's crying mercyWhen they don't know the meaning of the wordNobody knows the meaning of the word
