Sinner’s Prayers Songtext
von Ray Charles

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Well, if I′ve done somebody wrong Lord
Have mercy if you please


I used to have plenty of money, finest clothes in town
Bad luck and trouble overtaken me, bound to get me down
Please have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Well if I've done somebody wrong Lord
Have mercy if you please

Keep on working now, child
Oh, in the morning

Well, if I′ve been a bad boy baby, then I'll change my ways
I don't want bad luck and trouble worry me all my days
Please have mercy, Lord have mercy on me
Well, if I′ve done somebody wrong Lord
Have mercy if you please, oh Lord
