Lord have mercy on me
Got this idea in my head and I can't get it out
'Cause all your money and all your culture
I can surely live without
A pile of treaures up on earth
But what you keep and what you take
Are property, vanity, and even knowledge for knowledge sake
And I said, Lord have mercy on me
We're talking about two different things

Tell you a little secret for your blues

Fat lady always claps her hands

Sayin', even if you're robbing from the poor
Lord have mercy on me
I believe the words can change the heart
The words can change the heart
The words can change the heart
Have mercy on me, oh Lord
