Mercy On the Boy
If I ever get out of here
Well I might just set alight to this town
Swinging out that ball and chain
Gonna, bring these four walls tumbling down
So you take a fool like me
Yeah and throw away the key
Spend my wasted days doing time
Breaking these rocks in my head
But you know you're better off dead
When the judges bring the hammer down a little
Mercy on the boy
You know it ain't easy
If I ever get out of here
Gonna be a price to pay for this crime
Well there ain't no place to hide
And there ain't no god on your side 'til the kingdom comes
Gonna bend these cold steel bars
Gonna scream it till somebody hears
Ain't a cage that can keep me inside
Breaking these rocks in my head
But you know you're better off dead
When the judges bring the hammer down
Just a little
Mercy on the boy
You know it ain't easy
Mercy on the boy
Well I might just set alight to this town
Swinging out that ball and chain
Gonna, bring these four walls tumbling down
So you take a fool like me
Yeah and throw away the key
Spend my wasted days doing time
Breaking these rocks in my head
But you know you're better off dead
When the judges bring the hammer down a little
Mercy on the boy
You know it ain't easy
If I ever get out of here
Gonna be a price to pay for this crime
Well there ain't no place to hide
And there ain't no god on your side 'til the kingdom comes
Gonna bend these cold steel bars
Gonna scream it till somebody hears
Ain't a cage that can keep me inside
Breaking these rocks in my head
But you know you're better off dead
When the judges bring the hammer down
Just a little
Mercy on the boy
You know it ain't easy
Mercy on the boy
