Mercy Line

(专辑： Right About Now - 2007)

[Laughing]

I was a little bit foolish,
And I got a whole lot of pride.
It took a whole lot of hammering,
To get through this head of mine.
But, I ain't ready, baby,
To hang this one on the rack.
I just want you to know that,
Baby, I'm coming back.

'Cause I, I'm, I'm working on a mercy line.
Yes, I am. (Yes, I am.)
I, I'm, I'm working on a mercy line.

Oh, that sweet temptation,
She's a fair-weather friend.
I blew down that road,
But I won't go there again.
I love you absolutely,
And if there's one thing I know.
It's gonna take you, baby,
For me to get back home.

I, I'm, I'm working on a mercy line.
Yes, I am. (Yes, I am.)
Oh, oh, oh, I, I'm, I'm working on a mercy line.
Oh, yeah.

I done a whole lot o' hurting,
And I had a lot o' hurting done.
But I'll do my time,
Until the healing comes.

Do what you have to do,
Till I win back your trust.
Our love is made of gold,
Yeah, baby, gold don't rust.
So when you're ready, willing
And able to receive.
You know just where you'll find me,
I'll be here on my knees.

I, I'm, I'm working on a mercy line.
Yes I am. (Yes, I am.)
I-I, I-I, I'm working on a mercy line.
Oh, yeah.

I'm working on a...
I'm working on a... (a mercy line.)
I'm working on a mercy line.

I'm gonna walk... (I'm working on a...)
I'm gonna walk... (I'm working on a...)
I'm gonna walk, (Yes, I'm workin',)
Back into your heart, babe. (On a mercy line.)

I'm working on a...
I'm working on a... (a mercy line.)
I'm working on a mercy line. (Yes, I am.)

Just keep on walking, baby.
Just keep on walking, baby.
(I'm working on a mercy line.)
Just keep on walking, baby.
Just keep on walking, baby.
