文本歌词

I can't believe the things I'm seeing
I wonder about some things I've heard
Everybody Crying Mercy
When they don't know
The meaning of the word
A bad enough situation
It's sure enough getting worse
Everybody Crying Justice
Just as long as it's business first
Toe to toe
Touch and go
Give a cheer
Get your souvenir
People running around in circles
Don't know what they're headed for
Everybody Crying Peace on Earth
Just as soon as we win this war
So straight ahead
Knock 'em dead
Pack your kit
Choose your hypocrite
You don't have to go to the movie
To see something plain absurd
Everybody Crying Mercy
When they don't know
The meaning of the word
Nobody knows
The meaning of the word
Everybody Cryin' Mercy - Mose Allison
